Fading Light

A look at the last of the sunset light and it fades away in the distance. I was intending on some long exposure photography here, but there wasn’t as much traffic as I had hoped. It was a Sunday night, after all, I suppose. But I got to enjoy a great view of the sun, [...]

I was intending on some long exposure photography here, but there wasn’t as much traffic as I had hoped. It was a Sunday night, after all, I suppose.

But I got to enjoy a great view of the sun, so all the time spent at this location was far from wasted.

Busy Street

The highway on the ground is the Tokaido Highway. The corner I took this shot from was a resting point on the original Tokaido Road, the ancient highway between Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoto. Most people I talk to don’t bat an eye at this history, but I always find it interesting. Thinking I am sitting (or was, before I took this shot) in the same place a samurai may have been 400 years ago… Blows my mind a little.

It’s not so common to see traditional Japanese clothing these days. Sometimes you see old women going about their daily errands in kimono, but that’s about it. The exception to this is festivals. At festivals everyone gets out their yukata (summer kimono) to wear. It makes for some very colorful events!

A konbini (Japanese convenience store) shining brightly as the day fades to night.

]]> Convenience Stores (konbini) in Japan are kind of like Starbucks—you find them everywhere. In larger cities you may even find multiple ones in a single block, and more a block over. They are extremely popular, but the margins must be very narrow because they are constantly going out of business. There is a location near me (not the one photoed below) that has been host to several different konbinis; one goes bankrupt, then another builds up on the exact same location a few weeks later, and repeat. Crazy business.

I was on my nightly photo walk here and decided to get a photo of this place. Even at dusk, look at how bright it is in there!
