24th July 2025: Tokyo Tower from Shiba Park
Graceful and Captivating Beauty I recently had the opportunity to photograph Tokyo Tower using my handheld Nikon D40x. Most of the shots were taken from around Shiba Park and Zojoji Temple. Due to the significant contrast between the tower and its background, I found it challenging to determine the optimal exposure. I set the ISO to 400 to minimize noise and carefully adjusted for camera shake, which made the process quite demanding —but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Tokyo Tower, modeled after the Eiffel Tower in Paris, possesses a graceful and captivating beauty. While Tokyo Skytree is also stunning, Tokyo Tower exudes an elegant dignity that gives its charm a refined quality - making me feel compelled to photograph it time and again.
