Time Machine


Oasis21, Sakae, Nagoya City, Japan.

There are several clocks embedded into this work of art.
Time zones for major cities in the world are also included.
The whole medal structure above the base actually rotates slightly each hour, making one complete rotation every 12 hours, I believe.

*Update* I have my camera back and will be adding new photos shortly.
I think I managed to post quite a few considering I had only a little over 1 week to shoot before my camera broke.

Densha Ads


Meitetsu(名鉄) Train (電車) Interior, Nagoya City, Japan.

I see these things every single day.
The hanging hand rings tend to knock me in the head when I stand up.

Passe Sign


Kintetsu Passe, Nagoya City, Japan

This sign is actually attached to the ceiling underneith an escalator in the passe shopping building.

Note that Tower Records is on the 9th floor, which is why I say shopping "building" not "centre". This is much more like a building than a mall or even a department store.
