A close-up of that R and L trainwreck. I can't get enough of it, similar to a horrible accident alon the freeway. You know here is nothing to be gained by looking, but you still can't help yourself.
Isn't it like, bad karma or something to wear a shirt that says "Not Hard" to a fertility festival? Although, the kid is 5, and Japanese, so maybe he doesn't even know what his shirt says. (That's my guess)
