Daydreaming and Smoking in Harajuku on Flickr.
Candid shot of a Japanese girl seemingly lost in thought, as she smokes a cigarette on the streets of Harajuku in Tokyo, Japan.
Spent three weeks in Japan during Sakura season of 2010, and tried to use my camera for video as well as just photos. This is what came out of a fantastic trip across Tokyo, Kamakura, Kyoto, Himeji, Hiroshima , Nara, and back to Tokyo.
Originally made this video 8 months ago before I rediscovered my Tumblr account… so I thought I would post it here now.

Sakura season is loved by everyone. And in 2010 when the sakura finally bloomed people as is customary filled the parks for hanami.
Even Darth Vader decided to leave the light saber at home and enjoy the day in Tokyo’s Yoyogi park.

Is this the Japanese version of emo? I just think it might be. More classy than western emo? You be the judge.
