DAY 16

Thank you to everyone who joined Day 16! Let's dive right into today's roundup — here we go! 😆

First up, furoyomi-san!
Those eyes peering through the leaves, caught in a gentle wash of light — that upward gaze really got me. I found myself wanting to know why they're there, and what they're looking at just beyond the frame. What struck me most was how this shot uses that narrow space between the leaves to tell a whole story on its own. 😍

Next, Misoshiru Gohan-san!
Against a cloud-covered night sky, two silhouetted figures stand out beautifully — and yet somehow, the whole thing is wonderfully comic. I could almost hear Sam chanting a little rhythm to keep himself going. This is one of those photos that captures a getaway scene with so much character. 😆

Next, Kiara.Ma2u-san!
The boundary between reality and another dimension! Shibuya is full of gaps between buildings everywhere you look — but she climbed all the way up to a rooftop to find this torii gate as her "in-between." That choice genuinely amazed me. And with the cityscape spread out behind it, the feeling of being caught between two worlds comes through even more powerfully. 🤩

Next, Taka San!
Splashing water, the moment of leaping over a guardrail — the diagonal framing gives this shot a real sense of dynamism. What really impressed me was how you can spot the pursuer framed right between the legs of the one making his escape. That one compositional choice alone tells the whole story, and gives the shot both a thrilling sense of flight and a surprising depth. 😆

Next, Tam_VP-san!
A beautiful sunset marking the end of the day. The sinking sun trails one last sliver of light before disappearing beyond the waves — and there's something about it that feels genuinely calming and still. A classic horizon shot, and a truly gorgeous one. 🥰
