In late March 2007, I traveled across the East China Sea to Shanghai from my home in Tokyo for just 48 hours for an intense "photo weekend". From the moment I arrived on Friday afternoon until I left two days later on Sunday afternoon, I shot some 700 frames. This photographic travel diary, "forty-eight hours in Shanghai," is a collection of my favorite images from this trip.
Most of the 48 hours was spent wandering the alleyways and crumbling ruins of Shanghai's "Old Town," and thus the first two-thirds of this book is comprised exclusively of images from this section of town, a pre-modern enclave sure to be extinct within a few years. The remainder of the book is a smattering of favorite shots from the more modern side of Shanghai, from Nanjing Shopping Road to Renmin Park to the famous Bund waterfront across from Pudong. There's even a few pages from so-called "Old Street," a Disney-land version of what Shanghai supposedly looked like 100 years ago, although I seriously doubt old Shanghai had neon lit McDonald's and Starbucks coffeehouses.
