Tokyo, Japan 2016

Japanese culture holds respect for the right to personal privacy deeply. Whilst street photography is allowed, by law the publication of photographs taken there, including posting online, requires explicit consent. Photographs can be shared with the blurring of faces - however, I am aware (now, moreso, years after my trip) that Japanese people can feel uncomfortable with photographers taking candid shots, and perhaps also feel uncomfortable to confront it too. I hope I haven't caused this. I blur faces to respect privacy, including of those who people who knew I was taking their photograph but whose written consent I do not have to publish it.
