Yamanote, Tokyo

A first glance of a train and subway map of Tokyo will leave your head spinning. It appears as a complex wiring scheme for rocket systems. Nonetheless, one of the first concepts to grasp is the Yamanote Line, an elevated train that circles Tokyo. The train passes through many key wards or 'neighborhoods' making up Tokyo. The images here were taken primarily along this route between 1991 - 1995.

Real candids are shot close and on the fly. They capture a person, a moment or a place as it unfolds before you. This gallery is chock full of this sort of candid. Each image tells a story. A fantastic way to get a real feel for the city and the people. Loved it! V

George, your brilliant photographic survey of Tokyo is so much more than a mere travelogue. It is instead an incisive interpretation and the quintessence of the people, culture, spirit and urban maelstrom. Executed with technical mastery, artistry and poetry. Your street portraiture is characterized by tenderness, warmth, sensitivity, compassion, humanity and humour. Outstanding and memorable! Congratulations. Voted !!
