早朝の秋葉原です。秋葉原はかれこれ25年くらい定期的に通い続けている街です。あまりこのブログでは語っていませんが、好きな街の一つです。好きすぎであまり積極的に”写真”に収めてきていませんでした。(iPhoneで雑に撮った写真は多々ありますが)。
秋葉原って、世界的にも有名な街ですが、とにかく街の規模として見ると小さいんですよね。秋葉原に限らずですが、東京は街と言う単位で見るとやっぱ小さい。秋葉原はそんな中でも情報量が多く、それをどう写真として収めるか？を考えるとあまり手を出してきていませんでした。
ちょっと方向性を変えてみて、人気の少ない6時台の早朝に撮ってみようと思って撮ってみました。まだ何枚かあるので数回にわたって載せてこうかと思いますが、人気のない秋葉原…日中とは大違いです。
とりあえず、昭和口方面から万世橋近辺を今回は。
This is Akihabara in the early morning. Akihabara is a town I have been visiting regularly for about 25 years. I have not talked about it much on this blog, but it is one of my favorite places. I like it so much that I have not been actively taking “pictures” of it. (Although I have taken many rough pictures with my iPhone).
Akihabara is a world-famous town, but it is a small town in terms of size. It is not limited to Akihabara, but Tokyo is small in terms of the size of a city. Even in such a small city, Akihabara has a lot of information, so how to capture it in a photograph? I had not been able to do so much in terms of it.
I decided to change the direction a bit and try taking pictures early in the morning at 6:00 a.m., when it is less popular. There are still a few pictures, so I will post them several times, but Akihabara without any popularity…it is very different from daytime.
For now, I will focus on the Bansebashi area from the Showa-guchi direction this time.
