I was back in exactly the same place today, and even wetter weather. But the road layout has changed and it isn’t as attractive.

Pity. That layout was a photographer’s dream.

I have Japan on my mind so your image really hits a chord! I love the rain take on a familiar scene.

Yes, that is exactly how I remember Tokyo and for a busy city it is reasonably quiet until the weekend when there’s more chatter.
