May Peace Prevail on Earth

Here are some photos I’ve taken during my time in Tokyo so far. I’ve been posting new stuff more or less daily to Instagram. Somehow I’m already about halfway through my stay.

Somehow these images both capture and don’t even come close to capturing my experience here. That kinda place, I guess.

Some great photos here, Jason! I love the tobacco place and the stacks of beer crates.

Any chance you can share with us what camera was used? Some of these photos are absolutely gorgeous.

Thirding the comments on your photojournalism skills.  Very nice photos, and not the usual touristy stuff I usually see from Japan (which I have yet to visit)

If you don't already, be sure to follow https://www.instagram.com/tokio_kid/ on Instagram. Great photos from Japan. Used one of them as the background image for my book cover.
