Tokyo Tower with a sea of red lights, version 2 by jyokota

Tokyo Tower with a sea of red lights, version 2

I grew up with Tokyo Tower considered a monumentally high tower, but by today's standards, it's most known for its bright orange-yellow light you can see from far away. This was taken from my hotel room window, and I was struck by how many red lights on high buildings were also visible. Tokyo is full of tall buildings.

I tried posting a more expansive view of Tokyo at night but I couldn't get the red lights to show up when uploaded on 365. I had to resort to this smaller, tighter crop.
Wonderful capture. The colors of the tower are wonderful

This looks lovely. I will be going to Tokyo in 4 weeks, and this makes me so excited.

@888rachel -- how long will you be in Tokyo? Fun or work?
May 22nd, 2017  
@jyokota Just for fun. In Tokyo for 4 nights, then Hiroshima, and Kyoto. And tips?

@888rachel I hope youbbought a Japan rail pass! I loved Kyoto and Tokyo for my short trip there. I stayed in Gion and had a lovely dinner at OKU. Junko, I bet she'd love the building I never saw (for architectural detail near Tkyo Station). @jyokota Your photo reminds me of mybfirst night in Tokyo while in Ebisu staying with my friends!

I like this shot very much. The lit tower drew my eye in then I spotted all the red lights.
