The Colorful Wheel: Vibrant Lights at the Waterfront


Cosmoworld Waterfront Part I: Probably one of the most vibrant and lively waterfronts I've seen. There are dancing, colorful lights changing every second on the ferris wheel (which was once the largest one in the world!) and unique architecture all around, decorating this mini amusement park.

The reflections were also so clear and bright that you could see all of the different colors from afar and watch it change into different hues throughout the night.

The Autumn Scene: Shinjuku Park's Lush Nature Imagery


Beautiful trees all aligned so symmetrically in a row at Shinjuku Park. The leaves on the ground gave that extra flair, making it the perfect scene in the fall. 

I didn't quite get the autumn trees photo I was looking for...so I made a couple adjustments and added in more of a yellow-orange hue to this image so it is more fall-worthy.

Mirrored Ceiling Illusion and Art Reflections in Harajuku


A tunnel of people...upside down and everywhere all around.

This is one of the coolest entranceways into a mall in Harajuku with mirrored walls, mirrored ceilings and everything in between. Right in the middle, you can see everyone walking and watch all of that be reflected above. I especially loved the grey and white color cast and seeing that be reflected everywhere was spectacular. This reminds me of the Cloud Gate in Chicago where you can walk under the bean and see similar types of reflections.

Classic Beauty of Nijo Castle by the Waters


A stunning castle right by the water.

The beautiful light with the sun starting to set really added that extra warm glow and spectacular reflections. Had to capture this moment!

Tower of Lights: Majestic Tokyo Tower at Night


I've always wanted to see this tower up close for so long and finally had the chance to see it at night. The lights were so brightly orange that the tower was radiating from miles away.

A close up shot really showed the intricate designs of it--just look at the very top and see how much thought was put into the designs to reflect the traditions and cultures of the country!
