It is no surprise to many that much of my photography takes place in Asia, particularly in cities like Tokyo, Seoul, and Hong Kong. I have not traveled since the pandemic began and I feel so restricted by that fact. My photography involves travel and exploration, and without the travel portion, I can feel as though something essential to my life and photography is being taken from me.
Therefore, I wanted to convey my love and remembrance of Tokyo. Tokyo holds a special place in my heart, and I want this piece to portray just how much this city means to me. I hope people will be able to look at this photograph and feel how much affection and adherence I have towards Tokyo. With some luck, looking at my piece will make you feel the same emotions I felt as I stood taking this photograph. Please feel the love and dedication I spent on this, I feel as though it is my personal best portrayal of Tokyo, Japan.
I took this image on the Helipad of Mori Art Museum. I daresay it has one of the best views of the city and is easily accessible for people to visit the observatory. This will remain the how I see and feel about Tokyo for the remainder of my life.
