A jet flies over Shinjuku, while on the ground I look up and take a photo of it.

Look at this. A chair all the way from Liverpool finds itself in a Dean & Deluca coffee shop deli in Marunouchi,Tokyo.

Clock & Blue Sky

More blue sky. And with winter not so far away I can look forward to many more blue sky days - Tokyo winters are dry and clear, unlike England, where it's gray and wet most of the season.

We are almost into the second week of Novemeber and things are moving along: the new job is looking more manageable although still challenging.
I should not be thinking about what I might do after the six months, but I find myself day dreaming of elaborate travel plans.

I love it when the sky is blue. What I really want to do is is simply photograph the sky, without any subject in it all all, and then post a series of blue photo... but it's already been done... in a way - Derek Jarman.

The Phoenix and Drum

The Pheonix and Drum, originally uploaded by Jaqaroo.

The Phoenix and Drum sonds like a British pub name. I remember there was a number of pubs that started with The Phoenix and ....something.
I'm not sure if the metal bird on top of the drum is actually a phoenix. This was taken down our High Street at the weekend; some kind of small festival was about to take place.
It's nice to feel like a phoenix sometimes, don't you think? To rise from the perceived ashes of failure, to be born again. Life should be lived forwards.
