Chanba Center Metro – Bus Stop

Leverage the transparency of the subway entrance's glass curtain wall, along with the natural freshness backdrop created by the greenery outside the window. Subjects can stand in front of the glass, casually leaning on the railing, allowing their body lines to echo with the greenery outside, replicating scenes from Japanese movies; or stroll at a steady pace on the walkway, capturing the sense of life in motion.

Check-in tips: Inside the subway station, to maintain public order, flash, fill lights, reflectors, and other equipment are not allowed.

Photo poses: ① Facing away from the glass curtain wall, stand with feet naturally apart, gently swing both hands backward, letting long hair (if any) flutter with the movement, creating a relaxed vibe as seen in Japanese anime; ② Side-profile towards the glass, lightly rest one hand on the railing, lean body slightly forward, gaze at the green trees outside, as if an anime protagonist encountering nature in an urban corner, creating a carefree atmosphere; ③ Stroll slowly on the platform walkway, allowing the photographer to capture dynamic moments, recreating the relaxed commute in daily Japanese life.
