I made this view in the blue light of dusk on an April evening in April 1997 at Tokyo’s busy Shinjuku Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time it was the busiest railway junction station in the world, handling more daily passengers that even London’s famous Clapham Junction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have used this photograph and others from my 1997 visit in a variety of publications over the last 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I exposed the photo on Fujichrome with my Nikon N90S mounted on a tripod. I was emulating a style of railway photography popular in the the Japanese magazines at the time which used the extreme blurring of a train through a scene to infer motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
