Thinking About This Photograph

 This photograph was taken of the “Nihonbashi River” flowing near “Kayabacho Station” in Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku.

 The Metropolitan Expressway runs above the Nihonbashi River, and the scenery of the river always feels dim.

 There is a famous “Nihon-bashi” upstream of this river, and a highway runs on it, which in recent years has spoiled the scenery, so it was decided to underground the Metropolitan Expressway.

 In Japan, there was a strong tendency to seek practicality rather than aesthetic landscapes for buildings, but gradually we are becoming more aware of landscapes.

 This photograph was taken on a sunny day, but this darkness is everyday.

 The exposure was controlled by making detailed measurements with a spot light meter so that highlights and shadows could be expressed.
