Twilight in Tokyo & Mount Fuji decided to put in an appearance by

Another from the couple of hours I was shooting at Bunkyou Civic Centre the other evening.This one was shot a little after the sun had gone down showing the amazing Shinkousha [Cocoon] building in Shinjuku on the right with the twin towers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building, Tocho, to the left. Mount Fuji had been hidden in cloud for most of the time me and mhy buddy Jonathan were shooting. But, for just ten minutes or so, it poked its head out the clouds. Snap! Gotcha.

Nikon D300
Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED
5-frame bracketed burst
HDR Merged in Photomatix 2.5.4

    Great HDR and amazing Tokyo skyline. The colours are very nice: different shades of blue and orangish red. After Hokusai, a modern view of Mount Fuji (#37?) Instant fav!

    Bloody mountains get in the way all the time!
    …just when you thought you had a nice, clear skyline!
    This must have been an exhilarating evening, Alfie!
    Nice series!

    Love how your 300mm gives the optical illusion of Fuji being so close and for the Cocoon Building to seem so close to the Tokyo Met Gvt buildings.
    I took a few shots from Tokyo Met Gvt over to Cocoon – nowhere near your level of clarity.
    I got this sky in a Enoshima beach shot with Mt Fuji – as close as I can get to your level of colours and clarity.
