(Signed) Rama Lama Ding Dong by Yusuke Yamatani

The second edition of Yusuke Yamatani's photobook Rama Lama Ding Dong, published in 2015.

Yamatani made his debut with "tsugi no yoru e", a collection of photographs taken in Osaka, where he traveled through various music communities and squats. Although he draws attention with his stinging monochrome world, he always tries to expand on his previous works without sticking to that style.

This work contains photographs taken by Yamatani during his honeymoon with his wife. Speaking of honeymoon, Araki's "Sentimental Journey" is famous, but it is an ambitious work that aims to update my photos as if to swallow them by encrusting various essences of not only Araki but also the previous generation as a homage.

The content is the same as the first edition, but the opening of the book has been greatly improved by changing the binding method. In addition, the illustration of ants on the back cover was changed to two in line with the birth of the second child.
