An old Tokyo wander with added urban greenery

On some days, regardless of how many kilometres I wander, the end result is no interesting images whatsoever. Fortunately other outings can work out way better, and while it’s highly unlikely any of these will become long term faves, they are nonetheless photographs that nicely document a recent Tokyo meander. One that took in some old and familiar locations, along with a few previously unseen spots surprisingly near to them.

    When they put the M18 through our golf course I did try and play the old 18th over the motorway (before it was opened). That’s one ball I had to play stroke and distance on. But this guy really is in the weeds.
    Lovely condition on the phone, I wonder who left the lipstick on it.

      He really is. Very happy with that 2nd shot of him.

      Yeah, one of the best preserved still in use one I’ve seen, with the lipstick a great little extra.

    Oh wow, the building on the right in the first one is worthy of a horror story. It’s definitely about to come alive and start talking, and not in a good way! Amazing. Also some fabulous matching color people in this set.

      It’s quite something, isn’t it? Seen it a good few times now, but that amount of growth made it way more interesting.

      Thanks a lot. Happy with how those came out.
