Description

I rarely shoot in color but something about this night felt electric and I decided to run with it. As opposed to my b/w work which I feel tends to be more solitary and atmospheric, I think this image really captures the excitement and colors and closeness of the nightlife in Shibuya, Tokyo. Smiles, reflections, bright lights and colors - of course this is surface level and just below the truth can be seen. Gibson calls Tokyo a "mirror world" where at a distance things look familiar but the closer you get the more distorted reality takes shape. I felt this the entire time I lived in Tokyo and almost getting hit by a van while catching this lovely reflection seems fitting. This is my first NFT minted on Kalamint as well as on the Tezos chain, so I wanted it to be special. This was taken on February 14, 2020 - just before the first wave of quarantines kicked in.
