Try long-exposure photography at Ginza

You can enjoy a lot of things at Ginza such as shopping, dining, watching movies and taking photos. Especially at night, Ginza is the ideal place for long-exposure photography.

My sister gave me a Nikon Digital SLR camera 3 years ago. However, I had no idea how to use it. So finally I decided to take a photography lesson at Ginza. I accidentally took the long-exposure lesson although I’m pretty sure this is not the first thing I should have learnt. Anyway, the instructor kindly taught me the technique on the street, so I tried to use it there and then.

Ginza is a city full of neon signs and the street traffic is always heavy. You can find moving light everywhere.

By changing the camera settings slightly the photos are captured differently. Time flies when you’re having fun. I was standing on the street for more than a hour. I have been to Ginza many times but I have never just stood there for hours. A camera gives us another way to enjoy the big city at night. Don’t forget to bring your camera when you visit Ginza at night.
