Loads more shots here by me, them and by my nine year-old son, Joe.

I shot this just a few minutes after the other shot on here. The sunset just went on changing colour slightly for a little after this, with the evening encroaching and all the lights in the buildings coming on. Evening twilight. The air getting cold. But what a wonderful scene.
If you look at the ridgeline of the mountains in front of Fuji-san, you can see the silhouettes of the treeline, whish has to be at least 80km - 100km away. That 300mm is old but it is sharp as f**k.

Not the perfect framing.. too little space at the bottom, I think. But I was waiting to cross the road too and with a 300mm prime lens there is only zooming with one's feet as an option. If I'd stepped back, the moment would have been gone.

One of my shots from the Saturday walk I did. We didnt get lots of rain but everyone seemed to get some nice shots. This was shot in one my favourite street photography spots in Tokyo; Asakusabashi. Favourite because of the great depth you get in this street, with the railway station and tracks overhead which form almost a tunnel as they nearly touch the opposite buildings.
