Photographer’s Note
The last shot in the series. After carrying the mikoshi the people involved in the parade sat down for a well earned rest. It was quite a sight to see these carriages been carried through the small narrow streets. IT was just part of what made Tokyo so special. The traditions are still so strong there despite it being ultra modern.

Nice docu series shaping up here. I can see you thinking like a photojournalist, varying your shots and the parts of the scene. You might have thought of cropping out some of the weaker left side action...I dunno it's a matter of choice. Colors are still a little timid on the one hand a slightly Nikon reddish on the other, easily corrected in say, Lightroom.
This whole series should be seen in one place to be fully appreciated.
Good work,
Francis

I was thinking that this isnt quite dramatic but I dont think like a photojournalist:) It actually does fill the story, where you need grabbers and you need content shots to tell a more rounded story. As Francis says, TE isnt reall conducive to series, and I think this is the HUGE drawback of TE, which may train you to take good one time shots but discourages photojournalistic series.
