Description
Are you tired of seeing pictures of Japan that display traditional Japanese charm that you already know?
Are you hoping to see something unique and different that is captured in the modern Japanese society?
"Uncovering Japan Vol. 2," a collection of photographs that have captured snippets of present-day Japan, will meet your expectation.
This e-photobook, the second volume under the title of "Uncovering Japan," is a compilation of what Ryuzo Suzuki has seen through his camera as a veteran newspaper photographer. In October 2012, he began a photo project titled "New Japan, Old Japan" to capture bits and pieces of social change in modern Japan, and published the photo series in The Japan News, an English newspaper published by The Yomiuri Shimbun in Japan.
Suzuki has brilliantly captured snippets of what’s happening in Japan -- from pop culture, personal 3-D figures and a high-tech parking lot for bicycles to unique local customs and reconstruction of traditional townscapes in modern surroundings -- revealing easily overlooked aspects of life and customs.
Such modern phenomenon in Japan are vividly captured in Suzuki's photos.
Readers, even those who already reside Japan, can experience modern Japan through his photos. The e-book presents a great opportunity to rediscover the charms of Japan.
