She looks happy sitting on the kids carrier.
Almost all Japanese mothers having little kids get some optional kids carrier for their bikes.
Cats love that kind of carrier.

Naha City 1 by J.R.

Looking around Naha City at night, lots of little bars and cafes, lots of folks as it is now during a holiday season and tourist and locals were roaming the streets either just looking for a place to eat or just looking:)

The place where I live:) by J.R.

Posted on 2014-02-28

Shintoshin is trying to compete for the tourist trade with many on the different cities on the Island, so this colorful street is designed to attract the late night party crowd, and tourist looking for a little action:) There is no parking on the street so most come by taxi, or the nearby monorail. There is off street parking but usually it ain't cheap:)

I think this fierce looking bird is a falcon, not sure. Timing was just right to get this kind of sky.

Every good path has a place to stop and rest. This one in Naha, even provided a place to sprout while you rest. Imagine...

Night view from the monorail looking down toward a new shopping mall. I liked this image as I really enjoy night shots, and I think downtown Naha City with all it's colors and lights is a wonderful place to take these kind of pictures:)

Omoide Yokocho, Shinjuku by Daryl Johnson

Posted on 2014-05-22

6 years after taking a photos of this place, I learned the name of this alleyway crammed with small restaurants and bars in Shinjuku... Omoide Yokocho ("Memory Lane"). It actually has an older, less appealing name - Shomben Yokocho... please check Google-sensei if you'd like to know what that means!

The amazing beauty of trees (4) by Japanalia

One of the Japanese maples inside the Community Garden. The yellow leaves were the unusual and they attracted my attention.On a very small piece of land there's an agglomeration of plants and trees and there's no piece of soil left unused. People really do take care of this tiny garden.!

Tokyo Rockabilly Club (III) by Alfredo J. Martiz J.

Posted on 2007-08-18

This member of the Tokyo Rockabilly Club in particular caught my attention, his enthusiastic and bad guy attitude, he seemed to be behind every movement of the other members, carefully watching and then taking action.

I made many photos of this character in particular but with this one I think I managed to capture him in a normal and candid moment, he seems to be thinking about something and fulfilling the role of mastermind or leader of the gang.

American Steel by J.R.

Favorite among the Harley guys is to call them American Steel, but for the most part the Japanese plastic will leave them in the dust:)

Lying in beauty on the bench... by Japanalia

Lying in beauty on the bench,
Tearing my heart like a wrench,
They go with November,
Leaving me bathing in sadness,
So tender....
