New Release
ginza

Considering the introduction of novel techniques such as intentionally blurring the crucial moment, there is an exceptional reality prospering in the realm of photography. The spirited photographer Hajime Sawatari’s pictures of the nude Simon Yotsuya are again masterpieces among the exceptional efforts that suddenly revive the fading camera obscura sort of mannerism. Simon Yotsuya is cloaked in a kind of air as if having stepped right out of a Fontainebleau style painting, while Sawatari is the big chance maker who comes out of the treacherous darkness to quietly show him naked with daguerreotype elegance.
