Otoko-zaka

Spent some time on Otoko-zaka this afternoon, a straight slab of staircase running on a slope of Ochanomizu hill. Patches of green littered with detritus are yet a treasure trove of beauty granted the eyes focus on the tiny things. Like for instance this small - 5 mm in diameter at best? - red fruit. The missing one on the right was eaten by a bird, maybe. You can see additional pictures taken along this slope. Is there an equivalent for the French terrain vague in English? Lately, I am peeping into the interstices between building, like a voyeur under the girls skirt. Lots of small relics of the past, untouched patches of dirt soil.
