Photo Comp Oct 2012 - "Childhood's awe and wonder"

[RiK]

So, October's topic, as chosen by ElfQrin is "Childhood's awe and wonder"

Shortlist:

Probably not the best ones for anyone, but the ones closer to my personal taste. I must admit I expected more entries.

F-ZeroOne. I must admit the Japanese atmosphere is more related to my own childhood's awe and wonder, because of all the animated series I watched back to then.


RiK.


Portland.



Stuart B. Not a finalist, but I appreciated the idea. A real joystick from the '80s connected to a C64 in a messy room would have been in.

As always, entries by the 25th please, Usual rules apply

It reminds me of the streets and homes you can see in some Japanese animated series, like Doraemon.

Well, it was taken in a small Japanese town, so... The town is Sakaiminato, which I've mentioned elsewhere here before (those of you with long memories may remember the photo I entered for one of these contests of a reflection in a railway station mirror; also taken in the same place). I wouldn't exactly call it a typical Japanese town, particularly the main street area where there are many, many things that go bump in the night, but there are times when its like playing Shemue for reals, yes...
