Hello my friends,
Having just spent a relaxed week with the family in Kyoto, I developped a liking for the many alleys leading to backstreet restaurants or houses. Which one of these 3 do you like best?

It's a lovely group.
My first choice is #1.

First one, has a nice mood to it.

The first. Without a doubt.

All three very nice but I am partial to the third. The slow motion blur makes the image. Was it deliberate?
-
All three are excellent but the first one is fantastic and makes my imagination rev up.

No 1, Bernard: it's totally concentrated and about what it is.
Lovely.

Thank you all for your kind feedbacks, it looks like we agree about #1 then. :)

No I don't agree. ;) :)

I like 'em all, Bernard. Wish I could come back to Japan to see what it's like nowadays. I was there eight years after WW II ended, and I know it's very different now.

No I don't agree. ;) :)
You rebel! :) To answer your earlier question, yes it was intended. This is the only one of the 3 shot on tripod, I noticed the alley first, missed the first 2 guys and got the 3rd one. The slower shutter speed ended up being spot on.
Cheers,

Thanks Russ. I didn't know, or had forgotten, that you had spent that many years in Japan. Would love to hear about your memories over a few beers some day.
I would indeed assume it changed a lot since then, although I can't say it has changed that much in the course of the last 18 years since I arrived.
Cheers,

I wasn't there for eight years, Bernard. I was flying fighters in Korea then -- eight years after WW II ended -- and I'd have to make occasional trips to Japan. Also spent a week at the Fujia hotel, which was an R&R center in those days. Japan was still recovering from the war when I was there. On the way to Japan we stopped for refueling at Wake island and had a couple hours layover. I wandered down the road and inspected a couple of burned out Japanese two-man tanks. I'm sure it's all changed a lot since then.

I had misunderstood what you had written, sorry. Clear now.
But you are right, I don't see too many smoking two-man tanks around Tokyo these days. :)
