Tokyo Tower taken with macro lens from Roppongi. For you in the Wallpaper Pool.
Nice pic. Bit crooked though. Im surprised you took this with a macro lens? Wouldnt that make distant things blurry? I bet you got hassled by a pimp just seconds after you took that! Roppongi is swarming with those bastards!
A macro lens is a lens designed to give an undistorted image much closer than a normal one, but it can also focus to infinity. I hate to nitpick but that photo might have been better with the camera held "portrait"; it doesn't capture the imposing height of the Tower. Maybe Danny was being pursued by touts at the time.
Was taken through the windscreen - was in the car at the time trying to avoid glare on the window.
Dont you mean you were in a car trying to avoid the pimps! You are forgiven for your momentary lapse in perfect photography skills.... :-P
You say pimp like its a bad thing.
Lol Andy, that is so true. Roppongi was the one place in Japan that I thought had the highest concentration of dodgy looking people at night. Because of all of the night clubs there I guess.
What a beautiful picture; it still amazes me how incredible Tokyo is...
Tokyotower remains amaising at any angle ;)
