Welcome to my work on street photography.
This is a continuing project launched in spring 2015.
It all started in Paris a long time ago - in 1974, and kept going on ever since in the cities in UK, Japan, Italy and USA.
These photos were taken in my free time while shooting professional assignments which were for the fashion magazines, the advertising agencies, etc.,
Out of thousands of negatives, prints and slides in my archives, some have been published in photo/art magazines in Japan, Europe and US, and shown in the galleries in Soho,the East Village in Germany but many have yet to be properly shown.
New material both from the archives or my current shoots will be added as time permits : stay tuned and revisit.
Activities;
*In Sep~Oct 2016, selected work from this collection has been shown in an exhibition in Germany:
