Tokyo's Rainbow bridge

September 2005
Rainbow Bridge , Tokyo

Apart from subways, another thing famous metropolitan cities seem to have in common is "bridges".
NewYork - Brooklyn Bridge
San Francisco - Golden Gate Bridge
London - London Bridge
Tokyo has its Rainbow Bridge !
We walked over the rainbow bridge and its a lovely walk if you do it at twilight.
This picture was taken from a ferry though that goes from Hinode to Odaiba. I like this shot a lot because it is a LOT OF effort to get good night pictures without a tripod. The slow exposure gives me a terribly shaky picture with the camera I have. I lucked out with this one though.
Managing the rocking motion of the boat, holding the camera steady,getting a good angle..phew!
I liked the contrast of the bridge against the inky sky. If you look closely you can even see the fading colors of a beautiful sunset in the background.
If you are in Tokyo, make sure you walk over the rainbow bridge, it is not something anyone should miss!
