Celebrating Spring, and a New Quarter of the Jogger Photo Project

The Jogger Photo Project has been public for a few months now and I am absolutely thrilled with the response. It's comforting to have a project that may take the rest of my life to complete. These photographs are an inspiration to my writing, namely my short story The Jogger. But they are so much more than that. Special thanks to a few friends who made the effort and made my day, especially Bradley, Diana, Chipper, Paul (Redbeard) and H (for taking it further). And thanks to the brilliant photographers who responded with such enthusiasm.

Many people jog and bike around the Imperial Palace in the morning or evening. It one of the few places in Tokyo you can probably run without getting interrupted by traffic lights or lots of cars - and have some green to look at.

Morning in Asakusa, Tokyo - Jogger says a prayer

A lot of people come jogging through the area in front of Sensoji temple. Many take a moment to say a prayer - like this jogger. Some come to a complete stop. Some run in place while praying. And some make a small bow as they pass in front of the temple without ever stopping.
