Sanja Matsuri
by Alexey Kn
It is a period of festivals in Tokyo… Here are my photo impressions of a much bigger festival than Kanda Matsuri – Sanja Matsuri in Asakusa. Packed with locals and tourists, but my focus was of course on the festival participants. 20 photos! :)

People and Phones
by Alexey Kn
People and phones. What else can I say? Well, Japanese even thought of a special word combination for checking your phone while walking – 「歩きスマホ」 (Aruki-Sumafo). In Russian, concentrated phone checking means – “тупить в телефон” (“checking your phone like a dumb”). In Germany youth slang for phone addicted people was “Smombie” (“Smartphone Zombie”). Fight against addiction! :D
A stroll through Chinatown
by Alexey Kn
Hmm… I focus (hey, it’s a photo pun!) more on street photography in the last months, but, well, I love street photography. And I am staying true to the theme of this site – “Shooting” people :). However, sooner or later, I will catch up with portraits. Here are some shots from a stroll I did though Yokohama’s Chinatown last week.
