A landscaped garden of 250,216 m² ... the park is surrounded by a seawater moat filled by Tokyo Bay. It was remodeled as a public park on the site of a villa belonging to the ruling Tokugawa family in the 17th century." — source Wikipedia

If I remember correctly the photo was pre-dinner and still light enough for a twilight shot... plus I could avoid any impact on my technique due to some great wine. Casey .

Evángelos Odysséas Papathanassíou (known professionally as Vangelis), is a Greek musician known for composing scores to the films Chariots of Fire (1981), Blade Runner (1982), Missing (1982), Antarctica (1983), The Bounty (1984), 1492: Conquest of Paradise (1992), and Alexander (2004)... as well as a discography of 23 studio albums to date. 

What a lovely pic!!!! Only thing that could make it better-Gojira in the background.

ゴジラ (Godzilla) "King of the Monsters", the fictional figure from a series of Japanese films. The character who first appeared in a 1954 film became a culture icon, appearing in 32 films produced by Toho, four Hollywood films, etc. etc.

You know your Godzilla facts! Are you a fan as well Casey?  Only thing is I don't want G to be fictional.  It would be great if he was alive swimming around and stuff.

thanks for the comment kjkt3... rgds, Casey .

a wonderful shot with a lovely, cool bluish tinge overall...  

the city from 40F and above is always fascinating to my eyes... night photos particularly. Casey .

...Tokyo at night is magic : )

My first time at that restaurant... the food was excellent. Casey .

I have always been tempted to take that helicopter early evening tour... not sure if it's still on offer and it's hit or miss with the weather, but it must be a fantastic view. Twilight (morning or night) is a favorite time for taking photographs... Casey .
