On the last weekend of summer vacation, Haneda Airport is crowded with travelers and people returning home. I spent three days in front of the departure and arrival counters, holding my camera. A girl is excited to travel alone for the first time during her summer vacation. An elderly couple reuniting with their son who has left their hometown for the first time in a long time. And there are those who are flying off to faraway places to start their new lives in September. People who are taking a new step forward and those who are seeing their departures off. This is a story of encounters and partings captured at one of the world's largest airports, used by 68 million passengers annually.
