on the mirror - 鏡

Reminds me of the famous Micheal Jackson song "Man in the mirror". Nice one.

One of your better photos (and you have a lot of good ones). The balance of the reflections is excellent.

...
perfect !

Great shot! (as usual :-) )

This wonderful photograph contains a lot of "mood."

ややや！とってもいいですね。

Wow i love the reflection in the puddle. Your street photography bears the mark of Henri Cartier-Bresson!

lovely, classic black and white photography.

Nice BW, fine reflecctions!

the reflections in here are wonderful, i feel the photo is a bit too dark though.

Thanks Ashish, Ahamed, JLC, Francesco, DeeJay, PlasticTV, Jeremy, Roberman, Armeen!
I am glad to be said 'bears the mark of Henri Cartier-Bresson!' by PlasticTV. My trigger to be interested in photography is Henri Cartier-Bresson. I hope I can take photos like him someday.

jjさん、ありがとうございます！
寒い中、わざわざ新宿まで出て写真を撮った甲斐があります。

good for being out in the rain, well worth it

good shot!!

Very reminsent of the early 20th century street photgraphers (HCB, Kertesz, etc.) who took ordinary scenes and applied great composition and good printing (though, obviously here "printing" is a whole new ball game!).

Thanks Gary, Joanna and Tuffer!
I am hankering the early 20th street photographers, especially Henri Cartier-Bresson. :-)

Well done. The high contrast and overall dark tone add very much to the rainy day feel.

Thanks Cool Daddio!

Awesome shoe! I love the foreground, perfect framing job!

Awesome!A perfect shot, I love the contrast.

Thanks Aaron and Hodari!

yes, you do remind me of cartier-bresson, but there's a bit of paul strand there too. c-b seemed more interested in the people he photographed; strand cared more about the patterns people made (shadows, etc).
there's some of both, and a good deal more that doesn't remind me of anybody; it seems to be just you. you're blog is wonderful. i'll be back often.

This is a fantastic shot. The shades and the reflections work very well.

Wow, i like the mood!

Terrific shot. The B&W tones and reflections work very well.

I love the way that the contrast distracts the eye from the detail and makes you concentrate more on the form and shape...nice one Tetsu.

Thanks Katherine, Mar00ned, Jérome, Otto and Phil!

Nice reflections. Good shot.

Thanks Suresh!

The weather overhere looks exactly the same :)
Very nice reflections.

Thanks Michael!

Great vantage point for this. It looks great.

This image has a timeless quality.

Have you considered posting your pictures in a larger resolution - I'd love to see some more detail - and giving your template a dark(er) background? It would certainly enhance your pictures as they are almost completely in B&W and prominently feature dark areas.

Thanks Chris and Sknop!
Umm. I have been said so many times to make photos bigger. I am thinking that making photos much bigger the stain become also much bigger... And I like this blue and white color combination. I will change to dark background when I am tired this template.

nice one tetsu - makes me realise there is no excuse for not taking photos in the rain - this is great!!

Another 5 stars. It could be a picture from a independent movie!

Thanks Emma and Siri!

Great reflections! The title is quite apt. The whole image looks classy with the dark outfits and the umbrellas.

Thanks Alicia!

I really like this shot. Wel balanced, nice reflection

Thanks Hans!

Tetsu this is an AMAZING shot. The wet ground is like a mirror, and the figures that are reflected are more clear than those not reflected. Just beautiful. one of my favorites from your site so far.

Thanks a lot, Mike!!

The reflections add beautifully to the image. Also the fact that the man's face is hidden behind the umbrella adds a bit of mystery which adds interest. Great photo!

Cool, love the reflections!

Thanks Marcelo!
I think it is unnecessary to specify the person.

Thanks Mohammed!

This one is great. I like the composition.

Thanks Lito!!

Une photo que Cartier-Bresson n'aurait pas dédaigné. Ce qui est pour moi un compliment "ultime"...
remenber "Cartier-Bresson" the French photographer. This picture is exelent : lights, mouvment, athmosphere...

Thanks Pierre!
I know "Cartier-Bresson" and love his works. :-)

This is the kind of photography I really like. And I like autumn in Holland: so many umbrellas to see!

Thanks Rob!
There are also many tulips in Holland, aren't there?

Very nice! The white umbrellas and the black reflections looks great. I like the mood.

Thanks Ellika!

I did'nt want to post a comment to this picture because it was posted 15 days ago and maybe you will not read this, however, is a beautiful black and white. I love the black tones from the water and the people in this picture.

Thanks Solin!
I read what you wrote!

Intersting silouettes.Good contrast.

Thanks Legabal!

Great point of view, reminds me of Henri Cartier Bresson.

Thanks Dutch PhotoDay!
Henri Cartier-Bresson is my most favorites photographer. :-)

Thanks for you comment on my blog. This allowed me to discover your blog and your great pictures. This one is my preferit. Moreover you're courageous to take picture under the rain... not an easy job !

Thanks Jujuly25!!
I raised my courage to go out at that day. :-)

tetsu　さんのモノ写真はすごく綺麗だ！　久しぶりにそな綺麗写真を見た。　そして、僕の大好きの東京からの写真。。。。。。。　よくこのブログに帰って見るよにしている。

Thanks GCK!
ありがとう！！

Beautiful!

Thanks Therese!!

Great tones, I like how the handbag is disorienting.

Thanks Istoica!

This is image is great! The balance between shapes, tones, and space works very well.

One suggestion, if I were processing, I would try to lighten the umbrella to make it pop out a bit more.

Thanks Clayton!!
Umm. It may be better to do as your advise. :-)

in my opinion this is your best photograph!
the contrast is perfect.. just the way I like :)
Nice work!

Thanks Bruno!!
Yes. I think this is the one of my best photos, too. :-)

I think comment like "wow" is enough. So, wow! :-) Nice picture.

Thanks Otomi!!!
