Josef Koudelka Retrospective Opening Reception, Tokyo Museum of Modern Art
Leica Monochrom with 50mm f2 Summicron lens
Photographer: Herbie Yamaguchi
Herbie has been a friend over the past few years. We actually first met by chance in Ueno Park during a photo shoot he was doing with the voice actors of the Death Note anime.
He told me that when he lived in London in the 1970’s Koudelka would crash at his flat when in town. They’ve been pals for years now. Another fun fact- One of Herbie’s London roommates was Boy George before he hit it big.
