The Governor of Tokyo when young, a photo from 東京, 関東

Photographer's Note

I have been to the market of shrine today.
Many things which reproduced the signboard of old movies to the passage are arranged.
The signboard painter has connection in this town.
The man drawn on this signboard is the person who is acting as the governor of Tokyo now.

It is good to see a new photo from you. I like this shot quite a lot and I always think billboards/signs make good photo subjects. Two things I like here are the colors, which look great and I also like how you have used the awning to frame the bottom part of the photo. I would like to see a little crop to bring the bottom of the photo even to the bottom of the awning.

A cool shot of a cool reproduction of old cinema billboards :)
Good framing, subtkle colours instead of over saturation
nice :)

Very interesting photo and excellent title and accompanying note, which helps me to appreciate this photo for its social commentary.
Good work, Mizue!
