About ..went to sea with a beautiful sky blue giraffe. Hmmm. This is just one of the odder shops you'll find in Old Kawagoe. Think of these dogs, wooden owls, and metal giraffes as the cultural equivalents of plastic garden gnomes, and maybe they won't look so odd. Maybe... {grin}

Margaret, what a flood of kind comments! Thank you so much... And thank you for following my suggestion to look for "statues." I have now made it easier by creating a portfolio section called, er, "statues" so it should be easy to look at just those. I include abstract art and religious figurines, so it's a rather broad category...

Thanks for your comment, I decided to look for some of your 'statues' this isn't exactly what I was expecting. great shot, really fun, quite like the giraffe. As others have commented it is nice to see 'another side of Japan' .

Another nice view on japanese life ! This giraffe is a remarkable piece of japanese design and style, different from everything else i've seen in my life. I found it at many of your statues and I like it.

Yep, Chris. Photos of them I can stand, but I can't image giving them house room. We also have a live dog... Must admit the giraffe is cool, though.

Thanks, Keith. The things you mention are EXACTLY the reasons I took this photo. I'm so glad some are "gettting it."

Roger,
I think this has more to say about the culture than some of those market stall images. It shows us a different side to Japan, one which not many people get to see.

I really like this, the animals are just so strange ;-)

Good work

Right, Brad! Weird merchandise, isn't it! Just couldn't resist this shot, and I think I'll leave it up although I'm sure it won't attract much interest at Usefilm...

The Owl was smart. On land now so the Cat and pea green boat got traded right?
