Shingen Ko Matsuri (信玄公祭り)
When taking pictures in Japan, it is helpful to be 6′ 4″. The next best thing is to have a dad who will put you on his shoulders for the same effect. I went with the first option, but the kid in the Oshkosh jacket in this image went with the latter.
I took today’s photo in April of 2010 in Kofu at Takeda Jinja (武田神社).
