Sky Watch Friday: Tokyo




While in Japan last month my uncle took us to the 52nd floor observation deck of Roppongi Hills Mori Tower (Tokyo City View) to see Tokyo spread out below us. We watched the sun go down but was startled suddenly to see three suns. I guess we must have been passing a corner of the glass windows which refracted the sunlight giving us this illusion.

  12. Hey, Kay. Great pic, it has me imagining what it reminds me of. Haven't decided yet, a couple of things come to mind, though.

    It's always relaxing to watch the sun rise or set. Thanks for sharing.

  17. Wow - how interesting is that yet somehow spooky at the same time. Three suns. Gosh I have never been to Tokyo but it looks like a huge city. Are you sure Kay that it isn't one sun and two space ships? Enjoy your Halloween!!
