You are giving bad habits here ;) Now I want sake! Colors are something you can spot and snap like a 6th sense. Another great job.

This looks like a lot of fun ! I would definitly be cheering the particpants on;especially if one's knocked down :( Interesting also seeing some (older) locals armed with camera gear in some of your pictures ... i'd imagine that these local Matsuri could potentially be boring and uneventful for a local who's lived their entire lives there to capture on pictures. That's how I feel about my own hometown of Amsterdam; I used to take so many pictures here in the past; but these days if I even wanted to take a single (Good) one i'd have to force myself to it .. but I suppose that's me ! And that these Japanese people love their Matsuri no matter how many times they've seen it :) Speaking of locals capturing locals .. Meiji Jingu is really a good spot for seeing that happen; it's unbelievable to see just how much high-end camera gears these people carry around :) oohhh ! This looks like a lot of fun !

Back with paper prints, I used to always think Kodak was good for red, Fuji for Green, Minolta for blue. I never really saw yellow as a good photo color. With this Nikon camera the yellow is one of the standout clean colors. :) thanks. yes, yellow is one of my favorite colors with this camera.
