great rich colour - and an intersting composition that works really well. Although off-balance, the lines of the tower really bring the whoe thing back together - very pleasing - and very reminiscent of a shot I have of the eiffel tower I made a number of years ago.

Thank you for your kind comments on my picture "feeding time"

Steve

Thank you for the visit, Steve. The lines are intented to be off-balance as this way it is much more interesting and attractive. Thanks for the comments!

Fantastic picture of the Tokyo Tower and great info, Yoshiyuki! I remember being there, the view was stunning! But I haven't seen it lit like this. The angle of shooting and composition are great! Superb night shot and clarity, great colors and contrast, congratulations! Ina

This is an original angle and composition for a much-photographed tower. Excellent work!


Yoshiyuki Tanaka   {K:13580} 12/22/2005
Thank you for your visit, Ina, as well as your comments! We only went to the 150m Observatory. Next time we'll go to the 250m one in daytime.

Yes, you are right, Roger1 it is a very attractive spot for photographers. For me, though I am Japanese, it was a first time visit.
