Tokyo underpass parasol blues

I’ve posted a photo of this spot before, but with the sun’s intensity rapidly rising, it seemed like the perfect time to head back and hope that the right person with a parasol would walk by.

    Oh this is magic. I wish I could say something coherent about the squares and lines and colors but that’s the best I can do, magic.

      Thanks a lot. That sounds very nice to me. I spotted her and knew she was the person I was there to photograph, but there was a brief worry someone else would wander into the frame. Thankfully that didn’t happen.

    A stunning photograph. A modern photographic triptych worthy of any gallery.
    You must include it as a foldout in your first book 🙂
    Definitely up there on my list of favourites.

      Thank you very much. That’s really kind of you. I do like this spot so glad you enjoyed the results.

      Might actually be some news about a book. Well, hopefully will be. But just need to finalise a few things first. I shall keep you posted.

    Great photo, thanks! How long did you wait before the woman with the blue parasol walked by?!?

      Thanks a lot! Mercifully not that long at all. About 10 or 15 minutes. Had a few near misses with cars going past and other people in the frame, then this lady appeared. Much quicker than I expected.
