Grim-faced Tokyo graffiti

The father and daughter appear to be looking at the young cyclist.

She, in turn, seems to be glancing at me.

But the rather disturbing looking face is without a doubt staring directly at you.

    Rather disturbing, indeed. I don’t think anyone could have put it better….

      Yeah, it was quite a sight Lizzy. Certainly not something I expected that’s for sure.

    A classic bike and just a Nuff in the frame. It could almost be anywhere?

      I hadn’t really thought about that, but yeah, it could. The only real giveaway I suppose is the kanji just visible on left.

    The graffiti look so real like going to swallow up everything.
    It is like fantasy and magical street!
    Wonderful shot!!

    Great photo! The face is cool, and the way the shot is taken, the street reminds me of any number of western cities.

      Cheers Richard! Yeah, until John mentioned it above, I hadn’t even thought of that, but you are both totally right.

    The graffiti supposed to be 3D, the wall is good.

    I am for 3d graffiti too, the wall is ideal, otherwise very cool 😉

    Looks like a Barry McGee piece on the wall. Nice!
