These dark, yet beautiful images of Tokyo at night by Liam Wong are as stunning as they are surreal.
Check out these drowsy drivers catching 40 winks during a typical day in Japan’s busiest city.
Stroll through hidden alleyways filled with lights and lanterns in this beautiful homage to the night in Tokyo.
Take a look at this picture. At first glance, it looks like a miniature diorama of a city street, with little cars, little street lights, little people… But it’s all so beautifully detailed, it can’t be just a replica right? What sorcery is this?!
Join us after the jump to see more of this amazing photography magic and cute miniature cityscapes by French artist Harold de Puymorin.
Tao Liu has a knack for capturing split-second moments that reveal funny configurations or striking parallels, and embody the essence of the hectic and haphazard Chinese streets where he and countless others live and work.
His work has gone viral in China, and is now spreading across the world thanks to people sharing his images across the net. Street photography is about capturing poignant and fleeting points in time, which say something about the human condition, even if that something cannot be put into words, and Tao Liu’s photographs speak across languages and cultures.
