This issue, 'Record / Kiroku #24' by Daido MORIYAMA features what he refers to as 'street snaps' mostly taken in southern France, including cities such as Arles, Avignon, Marseille and Paris. It was the hot summer month of July, and MORIYAMA fondly recalls endless fields of sunflowers, the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, and meeting with photographer Sarah MOON."
