BOY ON BIKE IN YOKOHAMA 1962

IF ONLY I HAD TAKEN THE TIME TO TAKE MORE PHOTOS WHILE I WAS IN JAPAN. HOWEVER, THOUGH PHOTOGRAPHY WAS ONE OF MY INTENSE INTERESTS, THERE WERE OTHER INTEREST I HAD TO ATTEND. I HAD NOT BEEN SENT TO JAPAN TO TAKE PHOTOS FOR NEARLY THREE YEARS. AT THE TIME, THE NATION OF JAPAN WAS STILL IN THE PROCESS OF REBUILDING AND THE PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES WERE ENDLESS. NEVERTHELESS, I TOOK QUITE A FEW, SO I MUST BE SATISFIED WITH THIS FACT. ONE CANNOT GO BACK IN TIME.
