Video: Tokyo in Timelapse

Holger Mette has a lifestyle that most of us can only dream of enjoying.

In 2007, Mette left his job as a lawyer in Australia and started traveling the world and also made good on his ambition to become a professional travel photographer. He funds his awesome lifestyle by licensing his images through sites such as istockphoto.com and Getty Images.

Over the last 5 years he has visited around 68 countries on every inhabited continent and in 2012 he plans to cross every inhabited continent over land at least once, visit Antarctica and to shoot 12 cities in timelapse.

Luckily for us the second city stop of the year happens to be in Japan and also my favourite city – Tokyo.

“This clip was shot in a period of about 3 weeks durring February 2012, and entirely with a Canon 5D mk2. It shows scenes from around the city, including one of my favourite landmarks, the Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa.”
