Light Trails Photographs taken at Shibaura canal, Tokyo

preceramic · August 31, 2019, 12:32pm

The Shibaura area facing Tokyo Bay has many canals, and the night scape of the surrounding skyscrapers reflected on the surface of the canal are very beautiful.

In the Shibaura area, Tokyo monorail is running between Haneda Airport Station and Hamamatsucho Station.

Change the rails to Yamanote Line at Hamamatsucho Station and , get off at Tamachi Station, move to the east exit where Tokyo Bay is located, and walk straight down the road, and will find the Nagisa bridge.

You can walk down to the terrace under the Nagisa bridge and you will see the track of Tokyo Monorail. In the night, you can shoot light trails of Tokyo Monorail and the reflections of the light from the surrounding skyscrapers reflected on the surface of the canal.

The Tokyo Monorail runs parallel to the canal, and you can shoot similar night scapes from other bridges over the canal as Kasumi bridge, Shibakata bridge, Yuunagi bridge and Goshiki bridge.

If you have a chance to visit Tokyo, please have a visit to Shibaura canal and take photos of the light trails of Tokyo Monorail

いつもきれいな写真をシェアしていただきありがとうございます。今回もまた素敵ですね！

私は現在スマホオンリーなのでこういったきれいな写真はなかなか撮れませんので、いつも見るのを楽しみにしています。

観光に行くとどうしても観光地を見たくなるものですが、こういった街の側面を見てみるのも非常に面白そうだなと思いました。ありがとうございます。

いつもコメントをいただきありがとうございます。東京は夜景の宝庫なので、2020年のオリンピック・パラリンピックの折に外国人の方々にも観て撮影していただきたいですし、都内に住んでいる方々にも身近にこのような美しい都市夜景があることを知っていただけたらと思っております。

@Ant_Bad_Yogi

Micro Four Thirds digital camera is one of a standard of mirror less cameras produced by Panasonic and OLYMPUS.

The size of image sensor is very small so the body and lenses are very compact.

For further information, please have a look to the link below.

Ant_Bad_Yogi · August 31, 2019, 2:06pm

@preceramic I see, that’s why @TravellerG called it compact. Thank you for the explanation. I think @Giuseppe75 might want to check this out.

@Giuseppe75 Comment above is the definition of micro four thirds digital camera.
