For Manfred, who told me that this view is the one which contains everything what he associates with Tokyo. And one can understand this in some sense, I think. There're so much things to be seen typical for this city in it. First of all maybe the train tracks crossing here on three different levels, the yellow Sobu line, the red Chuo line and below of them the Marunouchi Line crossing the Kandagawa. And the buildings, the contrast of the small and old ones along the river and the high and colorful buildings in the background, marking the border between Ochanomizu and Akihabara.

This is one of the first test shots from my new Canon 20D dSLR camera (17-85/4-5.6 IS USM lens), taken from the 9th floor window of across Harajuku and Meiji Jingu (the park is just below the high rise buildings at the horizon, forming a green band) towards Shinjuku. I'm really pleased with the resolution quality and colour accuracy of this shot. I'm really very lucky to work where I do in Omotesando...such great views of the city, especially at sunset!
