I've been slowly going through all my photography book and happen across this one that I bought .... well, I can't remember when I even bought this book or where though a quick google shows this book was released back in 1995. These are beautiful images of the band Luna Sea done in Nonami's style. They're ethereal, beautiful, gothic in a way and totally un-Photoshop. All of his images are done by hand old school. To call Hiroshi Nonami a photographer is like calling Leonardo da Vinci just a sketch artist.
It's an amazing book, 95 pages, hardcover 10.5 x 13.5 book - I can't imagine how much it costs to produce this book !
Here's links to other Nonami's images here and here.

Nice!
By the way, I can't remember if you know about Book Off or not. There isn't one up here anymore, but there are several in the SoCal outer areas. It's a Japanese used book chain, and they have mooks and books if you find yourself yearning for some of those things that are so expensive at New People and Kinokuniya...Look for sales in spring, August, and New Year's.
