One perk of having jetlag is that I get to experience the calm of early mornings in a way that I never do back home - and this was true again for the year's trip to Japan. It really is a special feeling to see a metropolis wake up, and being more or less alone while doing so (apart from a jogger or two).
Taken from Takeshiba Pier with a view towards the Sumida river as it works its way down to Tokyo bay. The bridge is Tsukiji Great Bridge - connecting the old mainland and the reclaimed land that is the area Tsukiji (constructed in the 18th century in what was once the marshy river delta - the name Tsukiji literally means reclaimed, or constructed, land).

Shinjuku is a special ward in Tokyo, Japan. It is a major commercial and administrative centre, housing the northern half of the busiest railway station in the world (Shinjuku Station) and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, the administration centre for the government of Tokyo.

Kabukichō, Shinjuku. Tokyo has many places centred around nightlife entertainment, but this is perhaps the most prominent of them (and the place is also known as 'Sleepless town'). Here are tons of restaurants and clubs (of various types) and cinemas too. The place got its name from plans in the 1940s to build a kabuki theatre here. The plans got scrapped, but the name stuck.

Nikon D60 with very old manual film camera lens, 85 mm, I think... still love the look of the D60 photos, even though that camera had only an 11MP sensor.
