A Japanese man in his Sunday best miniskirt

Or considering his rather bedraggled state, it could well have been a Saturday night outfit that dragged on into Sunday.

      Haha, the settings are rather fitting, aren’t they?

    Awesome, beautiful photo. I’m guessing Saturday night that dragged onto Sunday (pun intended??)

      Cheers. My guess too, and yes, pun very much intended!

      Yeah, I reckon so. He was a bit unsteady on his feet as well, but that could have been down to his ill-fitting shoes…

    Another great photograph for you Distinctive portfolio. It’s good to start the week with a reminder there is at least one place in the world where you can see such sights and not have to fear for their safety.
    Not to detract from the main event here, but isn’t that truck parked in a space reserved for disabled drivers?
    The chocks are interesting, especially on what appears to be a perfectly level piece of ground.

      Thanks. Yes, he’s a definite fit for that category. And totally agree, for all Japan’s conservatism, it’s happily a place where people can freely, and without fear, be exactly who they are or who they’d like to be.

      Good spot. Hadn’t noticed that. Very naughty. As for the chocks, I’ve seen them unnecessarily used on delivery trucks quite a few times, so presumably it’s a rule, or perhaps policy with certain companies.

      Must admit, the shortness of that skirt had me a little perturbed, but thankfully the tights were there to stop anything popping out.
