Week 19

I thought about doing a "Chuo no shita" (Under the Center) theme one of these weeks. Maybe stop at some of the major stations and shoot the underbelly of one of the main arteries out of downtown Tokyo.

The Chuo Line stretches from Tokyo station for many miles through the west suburbs of Tokyo. These shots were taken around the historic red brick Tokyo Station. Brick is not usually used in Japan due to it's inability to withstand strong earthquakes.

Again the steel and concrete has managed to capture my attention, probably because it's everywhere. So here is a book reflecting another metropolis known for it's brick, steel and concrete. Followed by three shots under the Chuo.
