Watching a Tama Monorail train pass by from the ground. The train cars look really tall from the ground, but the passenger compartment is normal size - the extra height comes from the need to wrap around the single concrete road ("rail") that the train runs on.
These monorail trains don't run very fast, but they are high up and the slow speed makes them a good platform for photography.
