    SA Japan 2016

    The Japanese culture and Anime festival for 2016 was held here in San Antonio over the Labor Day weekend. Folks were dressed up not only as their favorite Anime character but every other imaginable character. I was able to attend two days and it was really great fun. The following are just some of the photos I took during those two days.

    This young lady was stunning. I believe she was Azura from the Fire Emblem Fates video game.

    Another stunner. I actually encountered this young woman downtown. She kindly agreed to let me take her photo.

    I couldn't resist taking a photo of Captain Jack Sparrow.

    The 2 last ones are the best as the 3 first have distracting BG
    On the last one you should eliminate the label on his thigh

    It was a challenge trying to find a non-distracting background when you have literally thousands of people milling about everywhere. It was a fun and joyful event but I did see some photographers irritating some of the attendees by detaining them and forcing them to move or pose in certain places. I considered it a privilege to be able to take their photo, so I made the best of wherever they posed for me. As for the labels, no need to remove them. These are just memories of a fun event.

    Thanks for commenting.

    Thanks, Binnur. Yes, she was rather striking.

    Thanks, John. It was a very cool opportunity. My wife and I are thinking of attending again next year and perhaps donning a costume ourselves.

    I'm glad someone else finds her stunning. She seemed excited about having her photo taken.

    Thanks, Maurice.
