On the back of last nights bar opening near my place, I got into a conversation this morning on Twitter regarding the size of some of the standing bars in Japan which prompted me to dig up some photos from when i first arrived in Japan.
More on the new bar later but this one, situated close to the Century Hyatt in Nishi Shinjuku, doesn’t look like much and it isn’t but it’s fun and there’s no danger of not meeting anyone.
Peering in you can get the idea there’s not a whole lot of spare space in there.
I noticed a new motorbike parking area while wandering up to Shinjuku on the weekend.
In an area previously unused behind the Century Southern Tower a clearing has been made where bikes can be tethered for a fee.
Decent diameter blue cables are attached to the structure and act as the trigger to begin charging.
I was out and about Sunday afternoon and took a few photos on the walk home from Shinjuku. I thought i’d have a go at some black and white pics and i’m pretty happy with the way they turned out.
There’s some focus issues on a few of them that become a lot less noticeable when they’re reduced to fit the site.
