Photographer Mike Nogami with his son Yohei, in Bushwick brooklyn, shooting b-roll for his upcoming documentary film project about a Japanese girl band "The Suzan". Nogami has documented a folk rock band, "Happy End" (はっぴいえんど）, one of the most influential bands in Japanese music history from late 60's to early 70's. Today, we can spot Nogami among young talents the same way as a generation ago.

An weekend visit to sculptor, Ken Hiratsuka's studio in Andes, New York, about 4 hours north of NYC.  Accompanied with his fellow sculptors, Daisuke Kiyomiya and Akihiro Ito.  Beautiful life style was there.
