Tokyo canal reflection
Between Tokyo Bay and the inner city there is a maze of canals. These are fed by the tides and by the sad, concrete-walled streams that trickle beneath highway overpasses. I assume that these canals once served warehouses and factories, but they now mostly seem to serve residences and office towers.
I shot this while on my way to work in late 2007, framing a reflected building against a pylon. I like what the rippled surface does to the reflection.
