Subway love #1

Posted by Hoshisato (Ealing, United Kingdom) on 16 August 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

Inspired by the book "Subway Love" by Nobuyoshi Araki, I took my camera with me on the trains and subways of Tokyo loaded with some ILFORD HP5+ film.

Everybody who has visited Japan will have noticed the people asleep in public transport. Too many hours spent at the office in combination with a long commute forces them to grab some shut-eye whenever they can.

Thanks for all your comments, please keep them coming. You will do me a great favour by visiting my black and white gallery or blog. For my trip reports, please visit my Travel Blog page.
