The Speed of Life

Shibuya Crossing, Shibuya, Tokyo

Shibuya Crossing is, according to some, the busiest scramble crossing in the world. I sat in the 2nd story of a Starbucks that overlooks the crossing and just watched the people move back and forth. I took this shot with a longer shutter opening (around 1/2 second) to capture the motion...in my mind, it's a great metaphor for the 24-hour hustle and bustle that is modern life in Tokyo.

Another photo tomorrow...
