His job took him to Tokyo for the first time, where he discovered the ethereality of floating worlds and the lurid allure of Tokyos nocturnal scenes. I got lost in the beauty of Tokyo at night, he explains.A testament to the deep art of color composition, this publication brings together a refined body of images that are evocative, timeless, and completely transporting.
