Striking Asian Nightography

Thomas Birke Captures "Tokyo by Night'

By the look of his impressive portfolio, Thomas Birke seems to have an affinity for Asia. Don't be deceived by your first glance. Although it may seem like simple tourist shots, if you take a closer look, you'll see a master night photographer at work.

Thomas Birke captures 'Tokyo by Night,' which also happens to be the title of one of his series (yet, many of the images don't appear to be taken at night). Using great technique with both his camera and his editing skills, Thomas Birke's finished images are stunningly unique--at least, they are to me.
