HI Nathan,

I love your version!

Due to my random walking in Ginza (that's how I shoot on the streets, just
walking around!) I no longer remember where I found that statue! I shot
that in December of 2012 while getting lost in Ginza - I can never quite
figure out that place though I figured out Shinjuku and Shibuya rather
quickly!
