Nice mate. And a great insight into the stereotypical association with your adopted country.
Somehow I reckon this would be better without the guy closest to camera in the shot. The guy/girl in the yellow top - particularly where you've captured the swing - is an instant drawcard. It's just a personal view, not a criticism.

Nice one Stu. Like your PP. Like the motion blur on the guy in front and how you've caught the details of the people on the lower levels. Remember that scene at the driving range in Ridley Scott's 'Black Rain'? Makes me want to watch that film again. Have occasionally tried to work out where he filmed that scene... (the shinkansen was in the background and as it was set in Osaka I reckon I know which driving range it was...)

Lovely curves and a great title. I really like this image and wonder if it would also be equally great in B&W?

@Bob Israel: Thanks Bob! This is my first little experiment with lomo. I found a good little tutorial and liked what it did to the colours. The original is much more vibrant. Actually when I took the shot I was planning to go b&w with it and I did try a b&w conversion but felt that it lost something. I love b&w though and always compare it to colour before deciding what to post. Many thanks for the input!

I absolutely love this! I love the fact that you can see the different levels. Wow.

Really nice tones, colours and composition. Love the way it 'swings' away at the back revealing other layers. Very melancholy tone here.
