【Sensoji Temple Sanja Festival】 I filmed the famous scene of the Sanja Festival, the moment when the large lanterns of Kaminarimon were folded and the Mikoshi passed under them. This landscape is filled with traditions that have been carefully preserved by the local people. Asakusa is usually a popular Sightseeing spot, but on this day, I was impressed by the Scene where many people gathered regardless of nationality and everyone was excited together. Through the festivals, the passion and energy of the local people were conveyed, and at the same time, I felt that the feeling of impression is common no matter where you live. I wanted to capture such a moment of enthusiasm in a photograph. Location: Kaminarimon, Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo
