What to Shoot in Japan

Think Japan, think color and vibrancy. It is a beautiful amalgamation of both modern and traditional cultural elements. You will still see the ancient rituals and customs in the midst of modernity characterized by the concrete skyscrapers. Some of the old practices which continue to be a common sight are sumo wrestling, meditation and the tea ceremony. At the same time, Japan has become a growing hub of bold contemporary fashion with the advent of a new wave of subcultures.
