Best Picks of My Tokyo Pics

By Billy W 4 October 2009 10 Comments

Most of the time when I view a photo I’ve just snapped on my camera’s flat screen, I mumble “Now that’s crap” as my thumb darts for the delete button. But on occasion, when I take a look at what I’ve just shot, I think Damn, I’m good! Here’s a fave of mine, a Shimokitazawa side street on a chilly winter evening.

Shimokita After Dark

I love it because there is so much going on, so many signs and lights. I wonder how the Cha bar is?

@Paul:
Thanks. Yeah, the karaoke place at the end of the street makes it seem like it’s the place to be.

@Tornadoes:
Thank you. You’re right, so many lights and signs. It’s hard to believe so much is happening on one short, narrow street. Gotta love Tokyo for that.

Great shot billy. Tokyo has lots of interesting back streets like this one. This photo really captures the essence of Tokyo.

@Freedom:
Thanks.

@McAlpine: As soon as Gov. Ishihara agrees to pose in a Yasukini pic for me, I’ll be glad to publish it.

@Dustin:
Yep, same exact location. Nice work.

Nah, too busy losing money to snap any more pics here in Sin City. The place I’ve been staying at has cop cars out in front of it two or three times a night, though. So, if I can, I may snap a violent crime in progress.
