Seen: 口笛 Whistle

Haruto Hoshi’s series Whistle earned him the 30th Photographer Award- The prints have to be seen in person to be believed- an act that and even then at times difficult to do. The directness, improbability, and quality- not to mention discipline of Hoshi’s work makes it a benchmark by which all other Tokyo street photography can be judged.
His level is near-matched by only a handful of other street photographers in the world, and is surpassed by none.
