'These days, an ageing Daido Moriyama does not walk around as fast as he used to, but he still keeps himself as busy as ever. One day, his daughter Yuko drove him to Yokohama, where he walked around the Motomachi shopping district, but before that he had already spent a rainy day wandering around Komachi Street in Kamakura. After visiting Yokohama, the very next day he was on a bus to Fujisawa, where he lived briefly when he was young. Then he planned to make his weekly trip to Tokyo the day after, with taking snapshots in the Shimbashi-Yurakucho area as his goal. For Moriyama, even a slow and relaxed stroll with his camera still generates a wealth of images.'
From the afterword by Daido Moriyama: “Despite the fact that I usually have all kinds of things and ideas on my mind, the lifestyle that I’m leading is quite simple. I find myself swinging back and forth between worrying if I’m alright, and reassuring myself that I’m doing just fine. Today I wonder whether there’ll be that one great shot among the photos that I take, and tomorrow… well, that’s another day. So I wander about with my little camera in my hand, and when I’m at home at night, I sit down in my chair and grumble: ‘Hmm… Well… Yeah…’”
