      Yes, he really does. He really stood out from the crowd as well which was nice to see.

    A nice commentary on the coexistence of traditional and modern day Japan.

      Thank you. It definitely made a nice change to see a salaryman in something other than a regular, dark coloured modern suit.

    The fact you have managed to capture one eye shaded and one eye lit really added to his expression.

      Cheers. Didn’t notice that at all when I pressed the shutter, so it was a nice surprise to say the least when I saw the result.
