Description I love shooting scenes like this—赤提灯 ('akachouchin') in Japanese. It literally means 'red paper lantern' but refers to cheap eating and drinking places. This particular one is tucked away in an area of Shinjuku.

Shot with a Nikon D5 and 24-120mm f/4G zoom lens.

As always, great framing and colors. I really like the natural atmosphere of your shots of these shops.   I guess you take the shot quicker than the owners / guests can react and change their behavior.

tbh i really like this picture, not sure why. At first i thought it was shot in china many streets there look similar (not surprising though ^^) man, i really want to go to tokyo x)

burningmonk In reply to NowhereRain [2017-07-28 09:46:12 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!! Yeah, it could pass for other east Asian countries. A lot of Chinese writing is the same as Japanese (but not all).

Reminds me of the restaurant in Hatagaya, the one just up the street from Miki's Art Bar, both fabulous. Great shot!
