"Ohashi / Roadside Lights"

With the approach of dusk, vending machines begin to emit light on the streets.This scenery is particular in Japan, where vending machines are casually placed on the road. What I love especially is the light of vending machines on snowy nights. Sometimes I feel like I am drawing into that light. Those vending machines look like they are living creatures and keep me fascinated. Vending machines are watching us everywhere in Japan.
