月夜 / A Moonlit Night

東京夜間写真部のグループ展に出展した写真の話を少し。

東京の夜を久しぶりにちゃんと撮るなら、最初に参加したグループ展、初の個展、そして次の個展にも出した、両国ジャンクションを改めて撮ろうと思った。子どものときの思い出もある、東京で一番好きな場所だ。

でも、どうせ撮るなら今度はシンプルに、今の僕自身がずっと見ていたい絵にしようと考えた。さらに1月2日の夜を選び、天頂に輝くスーパームーンを添えた。

自分のためだけに撮った「月夜」のストーリー。

I'll write a bit about the photo I exhibited at the Tokyo Night Photography Club's group photo exhibition.

I hadn't taken a photo seriously  in the nighttime Tokyo for more than a year. So I wanted to try the Ryogoku Junction of Metropolitan Expressway if I would take a photo for the exhibition.

I have exhibited photos I took there three times. The first time was at my first group exhibition about five years ago. The second was at my first solo exhibition, and the third at my second solo exhibition. This is my favorite expressway junction in Tokyo anyway.

This time, I just wanted to make a simple picture that I would feel like viewing for a long time. I chose January 2 this year to do my job. It was when the super full moon was shining in the zenith.

This is the story of the "Moonlit Night" that I captured only for myself.

ついでに写真をもう一枚。こちらは両国ジャンクションから分かれた６号小松川線。これまではもう一本隣の橋から撮っていたけれど、初めて隅田川に一番近い橋の上から撮った。運河岸の整備が終わって明るくなっていた。

Now that I've taken time to write this blog post, I'll show you another photo. This is the Route 6 Komatsugawa Line branching off from the Ryogoku Junction. The construction of the promenade on the both sides of the canal had finished, and it was brighter that before.
