Waking up on Coming of Age Day 成人の日 (Seijin no Hi), I was grateful both for the day away from work and for the thick quilt of snow that wrapped itself around Tokyo. The snow hit the city nearly a year after a storm of similar size. I have come to enjoy taking pictures of this now annual ritual…

Day

Atago shrine, NHK Broadcasting Museum, Kamiyacho tunnel:

Near Kamiyacho station, then the outer moat of the Imperial Palace.

And night…

Snow in Yurakucho and the edge of Ginza.
