It's already February and we haven't started our photo thread yet!

I'm just posting two alibi pictures taken in January, I have it on good authority that @イェンス has more goodies.


This is simply amazing: electric spaghetti around Futakotamagawa.


Taken on a Sunday morning commute: an empty Sumiyoshi Shotengai.
 
Brilliant pictures, thanks for sharing. Looks as if those crowds were just photoshopped out.
 
Early morning view yesterday from the Corredo building in Nihonbashi: Tokyo Skytree to the right, and Mount Tsukuba in the distance to the left (iPhone 6).

 
@thomas That looks fine--what are you using to do that?

Google photos used to do that automatically when its AI sensed a series of adjacent shots, but then it disappeared, ...maybe over a year ago? Here are a couple of samples of what they did. I wasn't aware that they'd do this at first, but then when panoramas started appearing as 'suggestions' I quickly started clicking away with that in mind. One of these is a mountain outside of Sapa, the other Ninh Binh.

Click to expand...

I use Adobe Photoshop. The quality is not too shabby considering that the pics were taken with an old iPhone camera.
 
Here's a place that the dog and I sometimes go by on walks. I've probably posted almost the same shot before--but not in this season. (hope that makes it okay!)

A good result, to my eyes, using portrait mode--11pro:

(it'd be nice to work with people instead!)

Finally moved from Kanto to a different area. Like i promised - i will upload a photo, and see if anyone can guess the location.

First - a farewell to Edogawa.



And now a view from the new place.



The landmark in the picture is not that well-known, so i'll upload an absolute spoiler tomorrow.
 
@Lomaster , very exciting! As for the landmark: are you referring to the red brick (?) building on the right? Looks like a university.
 
@thomas
Red brick university building it is! And yes i'm referring to it.
 
Haha, fat chance
Just happen to pass it by every now and then.
 
Nice one! Enjoy Kyoto minus the tourists. How envious I am. Please share a lot of photos with us.
 
So, 龍谷大学 深草キャンパス ?
 
Thank you Thomas, there certainly are too too many tourists here, despite of:
- being off season right now
- corona
- me keeping away from major tourist spots
Have to brace myself for the upcoming hanami season.

@johnnyG Bingo!
