A saunter round the north side of Tokyo

These are the people and places encountered on an afternoon stroll round the north side of Tokyo last week. Scenes that in many ways worked out like a sort of unplanned amalgamation of my recent posts and outings.

On a different note, my photography work is currently making two posts a week difficult to manage, so for the time being I’ll reduce my updates to every Tuesday. A change that’ll help me balance my freelance commitments and also keep those weekly posts at the level I would like them to be.

The wonderful variety of Tokyo wanders

There are many wonderful things about wandering Tokyo with a camera, but the consistency with which the city conjures up surprises is definitely one of the highlights. Unexpected moments and meetings that can not only make a day, but all being well, make for some decent photos too.

These then are a few of those encounters, along with several far more ordinary scenes. All of them taken on two of my photowalk tours over the past week.

The beauty of nature taking man-made objects back

There are numerous overgrown structures and objects on these pages, but this scene is truly something special.

Faded scenes from the edge of a Japanese city

The regular posting of faded structures on these pages goes some way in showing how much of Japan is a far cry from the futuristic archipelago it’s often presented as. Dated sights that aren’t uncommon in Tokyo, but head away from the capital, along with the country’s other major hubs, and such scenery is much more the norm than any kind of exception. Areas that were once busy and prosperous, but are now quiet and merely passed by rather than purposely visited. These then are the exteriors, along with a couple of abandoned interiors, of one such area in southern Japan.

Images and interactions from recent Tokyo wanders

Some photographs don’t really work as parts of sets or stories, so this is a collection of varied scenes and interactions from several recent wanders. Images that while unconnected, hopefully still provide an interesting look at daily life in some of Tokyo’s quiet and peaceful suburbs.
