Earlier this month, a heavy snow warning was issued in central Tokyo for the first time in four years. The Japanese capital often sees snow once or twice a winter, but significant accumulations are rare. While the heavy snowfall did cause disruptions to normal life, it also allowed shutterbugs to capture Tokyo blanketed in snow.
