Heading back to London from Japan the long way, I'd only just acquired a Nikkormat camera which Japanese photographer Masayoshi Sukita got me (trade price); the attraction being its ease of use for a novice. It was my first decent camera. Not knowing the camera, I at least pride myself on getting the composition right. The other thing I love about this shot is that, although David clearly strikes a pose, the image is still unguarded and natural. David reciprocated by taking one of me in exactly the same spot. Believe me, mine's better. --Geoff MacCormack

Andrew ★★★★★

The way Sukita caught Bowie mid-stride against that train just pulls you right into the moment. The print's clarity and depth are superb, especially for a shot taken with a simple Nikkormat on the Trans-Siberian route.

Richard R. ★★★★★

The grain and color on this print are incredible—the way the train window light falls on him feels like you're standing right there in 1973. I've got it framed above my desk and catch myself staring at it during calls instead of working. Shipping was quick and the print arrived perfectly flat, no be
