The One about the Black/White Photo Series 005: Make Your Move

I shot this photo from the Osanbashi in Yokohama (Kanagawa, Japan).

With Minato Mirai 21 in the background, especially the Yokohama Landmark Tower, I watched as this young couple sat next to each other. The young woman watching ahead, while the young man contemplated holding her hand, but wasn’t sure of he should make the move.

It was a scene of innocence and many of us have felt that way, the thought of getting the first kiss, the first hug, the first sign of holding the hands of one you love.

I decided that I wanted to get the red brick warehouse and the Cosmo Clock 21 ferris wheel in there as well, so I had to get this shot showing more of the Minato Mirai 21 background.
