My photography project at Tokyo International Forum.

Today, I walked around Tokyo International Forum in Yurakucho and took some pictures of the fantastic building. Tokyo International Forum is a multi-purpose conference center in Marunouchi, Tokyo, Japan. Designed by an Uruguay-American architect, Rafael Viñoly, it was completed in 1996. It features swooping curves of steel truss and glass, the outside is shaped like an elongated boat. This year, IMF/World Bank Annual Meeting 2012 will be held in this building. So I take a look also for their preparation.

Please enjoy some of my shoots in Tokyo International Forum.

I really like the shape of Information Booth in the lobby. It really looks like a giant cake. Makes me hungry. :)

Floating at Kawaguchi Lake

Last weekend, my best friend from Indonesia, Imam-san, came to Tokyo to visit me. We haven’t met each other for more than 5 years. So, I am really happy with his visit. To mark our reunion, we went together to Kawaguchi Lake for a weekend trip. Imam-san, My wife, and I went together to Kawaguchi. It’s about an hour drive from Tokyo.

Lake Kawaguchi is a beautiful lake near Mount Fuji, Japan. From this lake, we can see a serene and clear shape of mount Fuji (if the weather is good). Very beautiful.

Imam and I then decided to do our levitation by the lake kawaguchi. It is a little difficult to do levitation together because you need to combine the same rhythm  and style :) … however, this is our double levitation.

I did some other levitation by the lake. It seems like I am floating on the water. Yes, I am floating :)

We then decided to climb to mount Fuji. We stopped at 3rd Station to take some photographs. Here is my picture with Imam-san, but no levitation.

I tried to do some levitation at the mountain. Look, I am floating above the trees and fogs.

That was our experience to Lake Kawaguchi and Mount Fuji. Happy Levitating. Thank you for reading and stopping by.
