Tokyo Color with the Fuji x100T Part 2

Thomas Alan Smilie

Day two in Tokyo took me to Ebisu, for a short pit stop at a store in the station, Omotesando, where I was finally able to check out and try on the new Apple Watch, a walk in Yoyogi Park to see Meiji Shrine, and a short visit in Shibuya for my daughter to get in a little more shopping, because she was so deprived in Omotesando. 😀 All of the below images were shot in Aperture priority and Provia color settings.

While my wife and daughter were shopping in Omotesando, I decided to walk around and check out Yoyogi Park. The weather is really nice right now in Tokyo and I enjoyed the quiet of the park.

The day wouldn't be complete without a night shot of the city, this one in the main hachiko square in Shibuya.
