I'm a terrible tourist

9/3/2018

... because all I do is photograph things that interest me rather than seeing all the tourist things.
We went out about 10am for a brief(ish) shoot & returned 4+ hours later.

This is our last night & tonight we are meeting up with another local photog for a night shoot.
Apparently the city authorities wanted to pull down the iconic 70s Nakagin Capsule Tower but the residents resisted, strongly, and it's now close to being declared a protected building.
ps: I'm only doing quick &dirty photo edits!

This is an umbrella park (coz brollies are not allowed in the art centre). And yes they are locked!

I bought some things in shop in Yamanouchi and was amazed to see the old lady use an abacus when there was a bright shiny digital till right beside her. She was quite happy for me to photograph her

The curving walls of the amazing art centre. The Japanese love unusual architecture. Functionality does not exclude aesthetics.

This is the old De Beers building. The light was lovely on this the other day but I was tired & didn't shoot it as well as I wanted. Reshooting today it was raining & I'm much happier with the moody result
