When Evan and I departed for Japan, I took my DSLR and Evan packed his video camera. He had every intention of faithfully documenting the trip but we found out by the first tape change that the write head had failed. Our footage was lost.

It's too bad.

This was the portion of the trip that Evan wanted to film most. The major reason he had chosen to come to Japan was to travel to Kamakura to find the grave of the esteemed golden-era Japanese filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu.

Evan wanted to take out his camera after arriving at the station to establish location and shoot a sweeping shot of the high school students milling about. I stood just outside of his frame and saw the train approaching behind him. I waited until it was in just the right places before snapping this photo.
