"Small Planet" series (this page) / "London" series view here
(click image for full page view)

Naoki Honjo uses a medium format camera with a tilt shift lens, which makes environments appear model-like. They are not altered through computer manipulation. Honjo aims to express a sense of falseness about the environments we live in. This gives the viewer the strange sense of looking at an image that is between fiction and reality.
