The story

How it went

Tokyo at night is a school of street photography: everything moves, everything is photogenic, everything demands quick reflexes. With a single lens, the 35 mm, I walked from Shibuya to Shinjuku, got lost in the izakaya alleys and caught the last metro train, when the carriages turn into silent aquariums. At sunset, from the top of a skyscraper, Mount Fuji was there, far away, for two minutes.
