Coffee Break at Roppongi

Ten years ago. 

While I was taking a photo of this scene a young woman approached me and asked what I was photographing. I always hate these sort of things, because about 99% of the time I cannot really explain it, nor do I want to. But this was different for young women hardly ever approach me so directly to ask about it. Plus, her interest was not just the standard question, for I noticed a titanium Contax G2 around her neck. It turned out that she was a photography student at the university where I taught technical writing at the time. She took out a box of black and white prints and told me that she was taking part in an exhibition to open in the area.

I later went to the exhibition, but afterward never saw her again. Every time I look at this photo, I think of her. And that mint Contax G2 around her neck.
