It looks rather humid but it really wasn't. I'm pretty the haze was mostly smog.

It's amazing in a megalopolis like Tokyo that it's not MORE smoggy (like Hong Kong). I think it's a testament to Japan's environmental ethos that things aren't as bad as they could be. Still in this age of prevalent combustion engines and trash burning, the smog in Tokyo can be quite bad sometimes. On hot and hazy summer days, people with asthma can have serious problems (I lived with a host family whose son was asthmatic... days like this --photographed-- in Japan, the kid was in a lot of pain.)
