Two old dudes take a break with Ultraman. Spotted in Asakusa. I still mix up Asakusa and Akasaka. Oddly enough there’s the same Ultraman statue in Akasaka. I’ll go there and take a picture of it next week.

This is a wonderful shot. Crop out the extra stuff and you might have something for a photo contest. Seriously, a profound comment about Japan. Old culture meets ultra modern culture, strength and weakness, protection, comfort.

Good eye Roy. Love it.

And I wish I had that Ultraman for my backyard!

I get mixed up with Akasaka and Asakusa as well, to embarassing effect.

“Salted Egg Superman”!!(That’s what they call Ultraman in Hong Kong.
But I prefer the monsters.

I believe that there are a few ultraman, in the ultraman family and I have no idea what is the name of that particular ultraman.

Anyway, that ultraman is set for life as he is getting constant sunlight to recharge himself and stop the blinking light on his chest.

Godzilla where are you ?
