Destination Asia



There are many interesting and fascinating discoveries when traveling to another country, viewing another culture from a different perspective. Covering the cities of Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, Alexander James photographed these beautiful imagery of taxi signage adjacent to city lights at night. Alexander stated in his series, "The images illustrate my fascination with the energy of urban taxis at night: they glow with a sense of urgency in the business of someone's journey playing out. The way the landscape of the city can interact with the reflective surface's of the taxi is often overlooked, these images aim to capture that light play with the energy and bustle of city life and the stillness of the individual within it."

These amazing images are "pure", shot on medium format photos and unaltered without cropping or any post production. Alexander James specializes in commercial, advertising, lifestyle, property, portrait, landscape, and fine art photography. Check his additional photographs on his website.
