This was taken peering over someone's fence..so to speak.... as it's more of a wall.. none-the-less.....I've not met the person who lives here but I'd assume they are of the older orientation..they keep and subtley display an array of Japan-alia.. Patriotism in Japan is certainly carried on to the current generations but how the occupants of this particular house surround themselves leads me to believe they have a passionate love for their homeland..

Cool, just cool completely. Good find, and the items make me want to hear the stories behind them.

I quite like the "Peeping Tom" aspect of this - as though we're joining you in spying on the display here. I also like the hodge-podge of the display itself. Random items, but all seem to have their place.

I keep thinking of the item in the bottom left corner as a peacock...such a neat find; love the presentation as a "peephole" kind of glimpse into someone's life.

I love the voyeuristic feeling, this sure takes me back to the time I lived in Japan! What a fantastic conglomeration of 'stuff'; I particularly like the modern-day baseball player image next to the traditional image of, what, an opera-actor person? Too small for sumo...Anyway this is fantastic!

I really like this -- an "accidental" composition. Well seen.
