[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Yes it is true I completely missed the most interested subject here, for some of us. But I couldn't resist making a few photos’ from the spectators here. It almost looked like I arranged all photo equipped spectators to one place so I can make a nice Japan-like photo. Wrong, this is the Carnival festival in Tokyo at Asakusa, approx. 1.2 million people and all with big cameras and other equipment. I’ve got some photo’s from desperate measures that people took to get at least a few photo's when you are ten rows of people away from where it al takes place.
I was so free to stand on a fence to get a few of these photo's luckily I took a lot of them in 10 minutes before the police ordered me to stand on my two feet, bummer.

Well there will follow more photos next time.
