This photograph was taken in the heart of Asakusa, one of Tokyo’s old downtown districts, during sunset. I captured this moment as I was searching for subjects illuminated by the setting sun when a bicycle rode towards me, bathed in golden light. The way the shadows stretched and the length of those shadows, combined with the beautiful silhouette of the bicycle, created a composition that became one of my personal favorites. I have a deep passion for monochrome photography, and I strive to create new and bold street snaps with strong contrasts. This piece is a reflection of that pursuit.

I run a content production company, specializing in web development and digital media. Among my services, I handle product and food photography for various clients. Personally, I am also a photographer, focusing on creating innovative monochrome street snaps. I started pursuing photography professionally this year. So far, I have been awarded more than 10 times by international juried photography galleries. My goal is to further promote my work and dedicate myself even more to my craft every day.
