Book excerpt: Magnum photographer Jacob Aue Sobol moved to Tokyo in Spring 2006. He began photographing in the streets and public areas, drawn to the tightly confined reality of the city. His search was for the individual human being in an environment simultaneously attractive and repellant. He hung out with the rent boys in Kabukicho, the red light district. He visited the homeless sleeping in the streets and the parks. Most of all, he sought to understand Japanese youth, the generation which lacks any connection to traditional Japanese culture and values.

Download or read book Leica M Compendium written by Jonathan Eastland and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1994 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Leica M system has been with us since 1954. It rapidly became, and has remained the favorite instrument of photographers, especially photojournalists, who, like Henri Cartier-Bresson, seek to ""catch life in the act"", to record ""the decisive moment"". In this Leica M Compendium Jonathan Eastland describes the whole Leica M system from his experience as a professional photographer. He explains how to use, enjoy and get the best out of the cameras and lenses, regardless of age. The latest lenses can be used on the earliest cameras, and vice-versa, and the Visoflex, although no longer made, is now much easier to use with the M6 and its TTL metering. Advice on planning and shooting a story with the Leica and extensive tables of technical data complete this ideal companion for the practical Leica M photographer, as well as for the Leica collector and enthusiast.

Download or read book Unposed written by Craig Semetko and published by Whalen Studios Editions. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Follow in the footsteps of Leica Camera Ambassador Craig Semetko’s 10 year trek across the globe to capture the spontaneity, humor, and juxtaposition of the human experience. In the book’s forward, iconic photographer Elliott Erwin writes, “Good photographs are tough enough to shoot. Really funny ones are even harder. Good and funny photographs observed in nature not arranged or manipulated but simply observed in real time with amazing consistency, constitute a minor miracle now presented in Mr. Semetko’s book…In my book, he is the essential photographer. That is, the one who sees what others could not have seen.” Inspired by Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, and Elliott Erwitt, Craig Semetko is a collector of the spontaneous moment. With an uncanny knack for using Leica Cameras to capture the beautiful and unexpected that surrounds us all, Semetko offers a striking collection of imagery shot during 10 years of traveling around the world, from Edinburgh to Amsterdam, France to Los Angeles, Hanoi to Bangkok, and beyond. This visual celebration records the first decade of the twenty-first century across all walks of life. Semetko documents the muted beauty of regular people simply living their lives, and captures the humor found in the offbeat and eccentric contrasts all around us. Unposed is a memorable exploration of an era shot by a skilled photographer, dubbed by Esquire magazine as “a noble torchbearer” of the Leica Camera legacy.
