Tokyo Nobody


I found an interesting book the other day entitled: Tokyo Nobody, by photographer Masataka Nakano.
The pics appear to from the '90s.
He had the unenviable task of documenting Tokyo's streets and cityscapes minus human beings.
Hence the title of the book.

No easy task when you consider the population of Tokyo is roughly 12million, only cover the 23-wards, with up to 39 million when you take into account the Greater Tokyo area.

Defeinitely some time and effort gone into this one.
Quite a challenge that I might embark on myself.
You can check out some pics from the book here:
