I'll be part of the exhibition at Gallery Conceal in Shibuya, Oct 22 - 27. I will be there most days hanging out. So, if you'd like me to sign your copy of TOKYO UNSEEN, or you just wanna say 'hi' please stop by. My prints will also be for sale so let me know if you'd like one!

It has been quite a long time since I've posted on Facebook. But now I have something truly worthy of sharing: I have published a book, called Tokyo Unseen. It's a collection of street photographs taken in Tokyo over a decade. There are about 150 images in the book. It's now available on Amazon (actually seeing it there is unbelievable to me.... it somehow makes it 'real'). Please take a look and consider purchasing a copy: https://www.amazon.com/Tokyo-Unseen-Lukasz-Palka/dp/3961714908/

Photography has the power to show unusual perspectives. This concept never gets old.

Night street scenes around Tokyo... What I love capturing in my street photography is the subtle moments, not the grandiose—a hand gesture, a smile, splash of light on an umbrella, a brief glimpse over the shoulder, even the playful harmony or color and light.

I love collecting photo sets, bit by bit, over the years.

Melted light flows along glass in mad rivulets of color. Synthetized beams of fluorescence creep along steel. The walls murmur with distant voices lost in darkness.

And now for some less cliche shots from the same location. When trying to shoot the view from these observation decks the biggest challenge is the glass. But my approach to photography is to be like water and adapt to the situation. If I have glass, sometimes I seek the reflections instead of avoiding them. The first three shots are examples of this, but I threw in a few standard ones as well.

I've succumbed to shooting the cliche. I think there's nothing wrong with that. 😊😊
