Photography

Shinagawa is commonly used to refer to the business district around Shinagawa Station, when in fact the station is located in Minato-ku. Shinagawa has a sister-city relationship with Geneva, Switzerland... On Thursday past I was headed for some sushi at 味...  

Even these every day sceneries have an exotic quality that I love taking in.

when talking about what makes a photograph 'interesting', or interesting enough to cause-a-pause in ones daily life... "Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to fee... 

framing our natural world and then emotion exudes from that frame. Quite intriguing!

and I need to get out a bit more and explore the different neighborhoods. Casey

Note: I will not be in Tokyo during the Olympics in 2020... Casey

the individuals that keep the trains running and on-time are much appreciated... I was commuting on an over-packed train when a young individual got their arm stuck in the door... the platform staff quickly disconnected the air pressure activated door, go... 

It’s a nice composition and the colors are really nice. It also speaks to me on a deeper level. To me, what “makes” that picture is the detail of sharp iron crease in the shirt. Perhaps because I live in a culture that is more sloppy. To me, that tiny det... 

...stayed across the street a few times at the Prince Sakura hotel...once the first time we went to Japan. A bit out of the way but the station has connections to everything.

on the 38 floor of the Shinagawa Prince Hotel... good service by JR Yamanote Line but Shinagawa Station doesn't have a direct connection to the [less expensive] Tokyo Metro system... I did visit the Canon Showroom in Shinagawa before supper... looked at t... 

...but JR usually got us where we needed to go when we first arrived. Be careful of Shinjuku...even after a year of living in Tokyo sometimes it was hard to find the exit! It's an entire underground city : )

Shinjuku station can be a bit confusing... and particularly challenging to describe a meeting place to first time visitors... the only place I ever really got "lost" was the new international terminal at Hanada Airport... for the life of me I couldn't fin... 

Hi Casey, your pictures and write up brought back so many memories old and new. We always stay at the Prince Shinagawa Hotel. The station is so convenient to explore Tokyo by train and a start point for Shinkanzen to head across this fascinating country. ... 

My very first visit to Tokyo (c1985) I stayed at the "Tokyo Prince" in Shibakōen next to Tokyo Tower... I understand it's still there and they have opened a newer " The Prince Park Tower Tokyo" in the same neighborhood. The food (and view) at the Shinagaw... 

I don't know why but I really love the second pic. To me it's eye catching. Again awesome work Casey!

Shinagawa is one of the stations where you can see across multiple tracks... in total about 20 customer platforms (some underground). Platform 1: Yamanote Line for Tokyo Platform 2: Yamanote Line for Shibuya Platform 3: Keihin-Tohoku Line for Tokyo Platfo... 

and never get tired of Japan, the food, photo objects and shopping....LoL Very true.....a photo without feel there is no soul and will be boring in the long run the last 2 photos is very nice to show day and night Happy Sunday

Shopping takes it to a whole different level ; ) Normally I am a big fan of cityscapes at night but this time I have a slight preference for the overcast & slightly foggy photo taken at 6:08 PM... but I do like the contrast of the two photos of Shinagawa ... 

for your wonderful pictures and post. It brought back memories of my visit to Hatanodai-Shinagawa www.watchprosite.com S

Earlier tonight I had sushi takeout from the local supermarket... kind of a Sunday night tradition ; ) Casey

Even sushi from the local supermarket is likely better quality than most fine dining places in some countries. did you take a pic of your sushi tray? S ...  

Not as good as we had in Shinagawa, but more than acceptable... no photos, just memories. Casey
