March 3.  Shibuya in chaos.  Shot with iPhone8 Plus.

Could be called the layers of a city. Good one Akria!

Thank you Sten!  Your observation makes perfect sense.  Shibuya is indeed a 3D maze, and you would easily lost sense of where you are vertically and horizontally.

The title nails the main subject/theme, Akira! Despite the chaos there is also coherence. Very well spotted and exe uted!

Between realities today and for once, rather bored. So playing around with items scattered all over my work table. My oestrogen plaster box became the target for the Ultra-Micro-Nikkor 28mm f/1.8 on a Sony NEX-3. Despite taken with a hand-held camera, the image appears literally razor sharp. A wonder I managed to focus this precise.

I had to cut severely back on jpg quality to make the image fit to NG file size limitations. Also the crop is severe as the Ultra-Micro-Nikkor lens will not cover the entire APS-C frame of the camera.

He wants me to become a fashion photographer, but I have next to no interest in fashion. Of course I can do it. I went to a Bundesliga Photo Workshop and the teacher, a professional sports shooter said: "you got it in you, you can do it" but I do not like spending my life in football stadiums and not at fashion events. I did horse photos and people liked them. But I do not like the horse owner society.

So I stay with food and Interieur and People / Portraits.

Thank you, Peter!  It was shot through the enforcing net molded in the windowpane of the building I was in.  The tiny lens of the iPhone8 enabled me to shoot the scene without bothered by the net.
