I always love the differing perspectives people have about images. One
of the reasons I liked this was the somber and decorous mood. It fit
the society and the surroundings, a very spiritual place for the
Japanese. And, I had no time to do a multitude of photos. These poor
folks were trying to conduct an important ceremony amidst a crowd of
tourists. I shot what I could without being a boor. I know that does
not improve the image however. Sorry you didn't relate to it as I did.

Don Roberts, Shinto Wedding. The only person who appears to be
mildly enjoying this parade is the bride. The rest of the party seem
glum, bored. For those reasons--were the image mine--I'd toss it into
the out-take pile, and look for something with more life and interest.
