Framing Japan – Part 1
The article I published yesterday contains two photos I took that same day. Publishing those photos made me want to publish more photos. So, I dug into my archives, and I came across photographs I took in Japan around 2012/2013.
I miss Japan. My last stay there was in 2016 and I can’t wait to go back. I’ve always thought it’s a gorgeous place to take photos. In my opinion, the lighting, both natural and artificial, is like nowhere else. The landscapes and the architecture are also singular.
Here are four first photos I selected because, well, I like them. I plan to publish more in the future.
A street in Kyoto
The charm and quietness of a random little street in Kyoto.
Tokyo Tower
An iconic symbol of Tokyo, standing among the city’s skyline.
Yokohama Landmark Tower
The ultimate badass architectural masterpiece. Gorgeous and hands down my favorite building in the world.
Buildings in Yokohama
A composition of layers of buildings somewhere in Yokohama at dawn, which, to me, has some Katsuhiro Otomo vibes
Tokyo, the concrete jungle
A panoramic view of Tokyo. I can't remember exactly where I took this photo from, but in the upper right, far in the distance, you can spot some of Shinjuku's iconic buildings, such as the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building and the Cocoon Tower.
