We recently were very fortunate to spend a week in the Shibuya district of Tokyo and we loved every second of it. The energy on the street is contagious and palpable. Everywhere we looked was a visual treat, and a surprise. All of Japan is incredible, but Shibuya is special. It’s young, hip, vibrant, crowded, friendly and in August, sizzling hot. Jodi chose to photograph the streets with Canon 7d which seemed like a good choice, and a Lens Baby which I thought was crazy. I brought that Lens Baby to a Wedding that I photographed recently at The Bronx Botanical Gardens, missed 4 frames in a row with it, and sent it directly back to my camera case (A Think Tank Roller of some sort in case you’re interested). It’s just hard too to focus, and not very good for quickly evolving situations. But Jodi pulled it off. It proved to be a great tool to capture the electric energy of the streets, and there are too many pictures to show them all here now. We’ll continue to post as we finish the edit. Tons of pictures.
