More Festival Pictures
Comments: 2
Alright, so I have to cheat. By way of filling up the page because I can’t stand to look at things the way they are, here are more photographs from the Kyodo Festival.
These guys were good — and loud. I tried to record them with a crappy tape recorder I have but of course the mic just couldn’t handle it.
72% of photographs taken in Japan are ruined by power lines.
Men wear flat footwear and get to put their heels on the ground, but the women spend the entire dance on their toes.
The knee-wrecking twisty thing required by the Awa Odori.
The second night of the festival brings … the samba.
No dance spectacle so viscerally combines revulsion and fascination as the samba.
For some, it is just too much.

Hmmmm. I don’t want to say it, but maybe in the last pic of the lady walking by, she was jealous of the chi chi.

i like the power lines. it adds a nice graphical element in the background.
