I Heart Faces - Dramatic Black and White


I thought I would enter this photo for I heart Faces Dramatic Black and White theme.

I think it works quite nicely in BW. I took this on a recent trip to Tokyo. It was cold! I only had the fish eye lens with me this time! I definitely want to go back and investigate all the alleyways in this area.
Go and check out all the other entries, there are about 850 so far LOL!

A day trip to Tokyo.

Whilst attempting the Space A hop to Singapore recently, we had to stay in Yokota for a few days. We went to Tokyo for the day. It was cold, but we fast tracked around for a good few hours. I only had the fisheye lens with me, got a few nice shots...(well with the exception of this first one of April taken with the P&S. Love this pic!). The whole train carriage was texting!

The next three are in the Asakusa area of Tokyo. I would definitely like to go back and explore the alleyways...

Many Buddhas...

A 'Geisha' walking around...she looks like a movie star!

The kids enjoyed it and it was good to go with my Space A partner in crime, Kenyeta, who was also traveling on to Singapore. We supported each other as we went through the emotional roller-coaster of cancelled flights! Here's Loubs, his new friend and Kenyeta...

I was just happy that Loubie got over his asthma after being in the ER two days before. I, on the other hand, got a hideous head cold when we got to Tokyo, but it didn't stop the fun!
