This is a re-edited version of "Walking with Leica" by photographer Kazuo Kitai, which appeared in the monthly magazine "Nippon Camera" from January 2005 to December 2006. It contains photographs of things that happened in his daily life or that he found during his walks, which he recorded with his Barnack Leica. Nobuhiro Jitsukawa, the former owner of the Jiyugaoka Art Gallery, saw the photographs and described taking photographs for the artist as an act similar to sketching for a painter. This book shows Kitai, 60 years old, with a calm and mature viewpoint that is different from the "journalism" of his youth, when he took radical portraits of the labor movement and student movement.
