About There seems little sense of the incongruous here in Japan. I don't mean the man who looks as if he's wearing a Santa hat... Look at the two posters on the left. They're NOT two posters, but two halves of the same poster. The left-hand part with the sultry young woman and the suggestion of flaming passions says that amusement rides, like two famous areas of Tokyo (Shibuya and Harajuku) are for "junior and highschool stsudents." (Really!) and the RH half advertises kiddy rides at the same amusement park. I think that's all pretty incongruous! Sorry for the poor quality... I just took a quick snap with my mobile phone on a lower-than normal resolution setting. When I went back, the poster was gone...

Great seeing to capture this. It does look like the young man is wearing a hat. It sure is a wierd combination of images, colours adn messages for one ad.

Incongruous posters and a nonchalant passer by - All in a day for a street photographer.

Interesting
