Street Photography: Gotokuji & Kyodo, Tokyo

Going out on a snowy winter day to take street photos of Gotokuji and Kyodo, Tokyo.

Gotokuji and Kyodo, Tokyo, are two neighboring areas in Setagaya Ward. The famous “maneki neko” temple is in Gotokuji, and Kyodo is home to a university, some schools and a larger station

It began snowing heavily for Tokyo one winter day in 2022, and I decided to go our with my camera and make a video while I took some street photography.
