Weekend in Tokyo
Lens: DA21 & FA77 Camera: K3 Photo Location: Tokyo 
Posted By: volley, 03-12-2017, 01:48 PM

Last weekend I spend again many hours just walking through this fantastic city.
Here are a few shots. You can click for a larger version.

Evening walk along some small restaurants below the railway tracks. Shot with the DA21.



First signs of spring in Ueno Park. FA77 ltd.with Kenko 1.5 Converter. Hard to find a good spot to shoot ... many exited Japanese photographers gathering around this tree.





Anyone still remembers Leo Sayer's song "I'm a one man band"??

Thanks Remco, yes, that's German Flag. They are serving German beer I think. In some of these places I also heard groups of Japanese singing German "Volkslieder"!!

Thanks for your comment Bob! I'm sure you would enjoy that place! And the food can be anything from outstanding to ... well let's say interesting. But that's part of the fun
