Thinking About This Photograph

 This photograph was taken in Shintomi-cho, Chuo-ku, Tokyo.

 Shintomi Town is close to Ginza, Tsukiji, and Hatchobori, but there are no prominent landmarks.

 A store specializing in Japanese traditional socks in such a town.

 It is a store where you can easily infer the depth of its history from the appearance using solid wood board exterior material.

 Since it is close to Kabuki-za, it is probably used by Kabuki actors as well.

 The place where general visitors come and go is on the left side of the building, which is not shown in the photo, but the entrance in the photo may be a doorway exclusively for Kabuki actors.

 I took a photograph of such a doorway.

 Two bicycles are the accent of this photograph.
