Tokyo Sa

Tokyo Sa part 8

I don`t know how do you see Tokyo. Neon lights, thousands and thousand of people, traffic jam, sushi and geisha`s, girls with colorful hair and clothes, a smell of new and futuristic? Maybe you wanted it to be so. But it`s not what I live or see in my daily life, it`s just a mask that was created to make you look the other way. I know that Tokyo is an old lady that struggles to put a wedding dress reminiscing the old days. It`s lonely, it`s cute in some way, it is plain and sometime tasteless like some of the common japanese food that you probably don`t know.

Tokyo "Sa" is a memory that fades away, something that you forget to see when the bright lights of the never sleeping town took your attention. Take your time, check out small details, let the pictures grow on you like rust and green grows on houses of this town. I hope you enjoy it...

Almost all photos were taken after 3.11. shot on Canon G10 Tim Gallo
