A beautiful work of nostalgia from one of Japan's most seminal photographers:

Osaka is where it all started for Daido Moriyama.

“Now that it has been already 55 years since I moved from Osaka to Tokyo,Osaka is for me a place that I remember with greatly nostalgic feelings. Sometimes it’s a simple song I happen to hear that brings back memories of the streets of Osaka, and when I close my eyes I feel as if I am right there where I used to be.”

All photos were shot around 1996.
