Reflection
While walking along the Sumidagawa, near Asakusa district, we happened to spot this funny and completely unexpected view of the Tokyo Sky Tree reflection in the golden building of Asahi breweries headquarters.
The Tokyo Sky Tree (東京スカイツリー Tōkyō Sukai Tsurī) is a broadcasting, restaurant, and observation tower under construction in the Narihirabashi/Oshiage area of Sumida ward in Tokyo, Japan. As of 29 March 2010 it is the tallest artificial structure in Japan. When completed, the tower will have a height of 634.00 m (2,080 ft). – wikipedia
Actually there is a little story behind this snap. Along the tree-shaded path following Sumidagawa, we passed a man who addressed us showing his cellphone. T’was a bit hard to understand what he wanted, but by looking at his screen, we realised he was showing us the photo he had just taken of the Tokyo Sky Tree reflection in the building’s golden windows.
And maybe because he saw our cameras, he showed us the unique spot from where this photo could be taken, and encouraged us to do so. A great example of generosity. Thank you again dear sir.
