Mandarake
08-25-2009

Notes

  • Inside the flagship store of the manga / anime store Mandarake in Shibuya, Tokyo. Rows and rows and rows of manga everywhere you see. I was lucky enough to snap a few shots before conveniently being shoo'ed away for taking photos. A clerk very abruptly poked me and pointed at the large "NO PHOTO" sign above my head. I did buy loads and loads of anime figures tho. This geek was happy.

    Thanks for the awesome response to the last shot. I must say I didnt expect it.

  • Wow! What an awesome shot. The colors are amazing - it rather looks like a laboratory of some kind, maybe something caputured from a sci-fi movie. The composition is also beautiful - it draws you into the frame. Geat DOF. Excellent work!

  • Looks like heaven for all those people how loves to read a book backwards ;-)

    Also the feeling of confinement and claustrophobia is quite nice here.

  • I agree with the posts. It's the green quality of the light that really makes it.

  • With this green colour, it looks like we are diving in another world. And that's another world (at least to me!), the manga world. Great perspective too.

  • I've never seeeen so much manga. Madness! Creepy green lighting, seems a bit strange for a book-shop. An excellent Gursky feel to the shot, well done for being able to snap a few frames.
