Some from Tokyo
 

I'm in Tokyo, and took a trip to Akhihibara which is known as electric city because of its many electrical stores. It's paradise for gear - Yodabashi Camera is a huge store with every brand covered - they even had a brand new Carl Zeiss Ikon camera which looked fantastic - I did resist though - although couldn't resist the Carl Zeiss Distagon 35 f/2 ZF.2 Zeiss's new range for the high mp Nikon cameras.

Took the new Zeiss lens out for an early evening stroll in Tokyo, where the weather brightened up the moment I left the camera shop.

This is Hibuya Park and it's clock:

I then took the short stroll to Ginza - a popular shopping area similar to London's Oxford Street or NYC's 5th Avenue:

Good shots, I liked the atmosphere of Giza St. and Tokyo at night.
