Eding Post
This is something that caught my eye on a trip last year to Tokyo. Nothing complex, just t-shirts and bags in the shape of fast food
- First, I thought it was a regular hamburger, but wehn I looked thoroughly, I realized that I was wrong.
- A piece of T-shirt has appeared from what was thought to be a hamburger.
- When something that we consider ordinary changes into a peculiar subject, our mundane life might look extraordinary.
Maybe a t-shirt that is shaped like a hamburger won't make your life look extraordinary, but it's a nice outside look at fast-food culture.
Yam Cart
I like to think this is an example of doing everything right. I took this in a fairly residential neighborhood outside of Tokyo at around 6 PM. People were getting off of work and on their way home to likely prepare a meal or pick something up for their families. Along comes this gentleman driving a truck with a wood fired oven in the back.
Tsukiji Market
One of the most impressive markets I've ever seen. Tsukiji gets rolling every morning around 6 AM. This is where virtually all of the fish that is served in Tokyo comes. The sites and sounds are incredible, auctioning of fish, motorized carts buzzing around carrying shipments from the vendors to shipping.
