Shinjuku skyscrapers at night

A couple of photos taken in the deserted streets of Nishi-Shinjuku during dusk. The postmodern architecture of the big skyscrapers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building and other skyscrapers make this area look very futuristic.

Anti-nuke demonstration in Shinjuku on 9/11

Pictures from the anti-nuclear power rally six months after the Fukushima nuke plant meltdown. Protesters were pretty loud and aggressive (although non-violent) making it difficult for the police to contain the demo within the designated route in Shinjuku.
