This 2008 book, like all of Hara's non-commercial work, is hard to place. There are landscapes, random street scenes, portraits, and various adult images -- women in bondage gear, someone getting fisted, and the like. But no particular type of image dominates -- even those highly charged "not safe for work" images. Thanks to wonderful editing, we view each photograph on its own merits while still appreciating the subtle polyphony created.
