Tokyo After Glow

During a hectic work trip to Tokyo, my evenings became a precious respite. Despite COVID's shadow dimming Tokyo's once pulsating weekday nightlife, the streets beckoned, promising stories to be captured. Hours of exploration left me with images, yet none truly spoke of the city's essence. As the night drew to a close under the tracks of the Shinbashi metro station, patrons spilled from the bars. As taxis lined up, bathed in the glow of the bar street, I saw an opportunity. Moving closer, I captured the silhouettes of waiting passengers mirrored in a taxi's window. It wasn't until I viewed the photo on my computer that the composition revealed itself: a harmonious interplay of overlapping subjects, luminescent lights, and deep shadows. x.miromiro Photography 2023 Location: Tokyo 5272 x 3514 | JPG | 300 dpi
