Man casts his shadow on the ground at Akihabara Electric Town, the largest electronics
A man casts his shadow on the ground at Akihabara Electric Town, the largest electronics shopping district in Tokyo February 13, 2007. Japanese wholesale prices rose less than expected in January from a year earlier, a sign that price growth remains tame, and investors now await GDP data to see if the Bank of Japan is likely to raise interest rates next week.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Kim Kyung-Hoon, we are transported to the bustling streets of Akihabara Electric Town, Tokyo's largest electronics shopping district. The image showcases a moment frozen in time, as a man casts his elongated shadow on the ground beneath him. The juxtaposition of the man's silhouette against the vibrant cityscape creates a striking visual contrast. As he walks through this technological haven filled with neon lights and towering billboards advertising cutting-edge gadgets, his presence seems almost ethereal. His shadow serves as a reminder of our transient existence amidst an ever-evolving world driven by innovation and progress. Taken on February 13,2007, this photograph not only captures a fleeting moment but also reflects upon Japan's economic landscape at that time. With Japanese wholesale prices rising less than expected in January from the previous year, it hints at subdued price growth and prompts investors to eagerly await GDP data for insights into potential interest rate hikes by the Bank of Japan. Kim Kyung-Hoon's masterful composition invites us to contemplate both the individual within society and broader economic trends. It reminds us that even amidst rapid technological advancements, human presence remains integral – casting shadows that connect us to our surroundings while leaving traces of our passage through time.
