Important company update: Following our recent email, we would like to inform you that Metro Imaging is becoming a part of Genesis Imaging (@genesis_imaging ). Until Friday 12th December 2025, a skeleton team will be at 32 Great Sutton Street to help with collections and booking in new jobs. From Monday 15th December 2025, 32 Great Sutton St will be closed, and all uncollected work will be transferred to Genesis Imaging at 1 Hurlingham Business Park, Sulivan Rd, SW6 3DU, where the team will continue to look after your projects with the same care, craft and technical excellence you know from Metro. During the transition period, while we move equipment from Metro’s Great Sutton Street premises to Genesis Imaging in Fulham, Black and White Fibre-Based and Resin-Coated Printing services will be temporarily paused from 6th December 2025. We would like to thank you for bearing with us during this service disruption, which we will, of course, do all we can to minimise. We will update you in due course upon the resumption of this service. We are confident that combining with Genesis will ensure the best possible quality services for you, our valued customers, for many years into the future. Thank you for your continued trust and support as we move into this next chapter. ❤️

16 years ago, I wrote an exhibition proposal to celebrate Ayrton Senna’s enduring legacy through my father, Joe Honda’s lens. The project stalled for many years, but the idea never really left me, and last year I returned to it. Sharing these photographs in Sao Paolo Brazil, on May 1, - for the first time outside of Japan - and hearing how much Ayrton meant and continues to mean here today feels deeply meaningful. These images come from my late father’s archive, built over decades — a body of over 300,000 images that I’ve been working to preserve over the past decade — with many more images and stories still waiting to be rediscovered. Grateful to the @mis_sp for their vision in bringing this exhibition to life, to @sennabrasil for their guidance and support, and to the many friends and collaborators who were so generous with their time and knowledge along the way. And last but not least to Shashin Kosha, Genesis and Metro Imaging for their meticulous work in bringing these images into the present. +++ Há 16 anos, escrevi uma proposta de exposição para celebrar o legado duradouro de Ayrton Senna através do olhar do meu pai, Joe Honda. O projeto ficou em suspenso - mas a ideia nunca realmente me deixou - e no ano passado, ela finalmente encontrou o seu caminho. Compartilhar estas fotografias em São Paulo, Brasil, no dia 1º de maio 2026 - pela primeira vez fora do Japão - e ouvir o quanto Ayrton significou e continua significando aqui hoje tem um significado profundo. Essas imagens vêm do arquivo do meu saudoso pai, construído ao longo de décadas — um acervo com mais de 300.000 imagens que venho trabalhando para preservar na última década — com muitas outras imagens e histórias ainda esperando para serem redescobertas. Sou grata ao Museu da Imagem e do Som pela visão de tornar esta exposição realidade, à @senna.global pela orientação e apoio, e aos muitos amigos e colaboradores que foram tão generosos com seu tempo e conhecimento ao longo do caminho. E à @shashinkosha e @genesis_imaging @metroimaging pelo trabalho meticuloso em trazer essas imagens para o presente.

It looks like a washing machine - but this is how the pros captured every detail from my dad’s transparencies. I’d never seen a drum scanner in action before visiting Genesis Metro Imaging. Each piece of film is carefully cleaned, prepped, and mounted onto a rotating drum, capturing every fraction of a millimetre - the grain, the colour, the shadow details that simpler scanners often miss. It’s not about improving the image. It’s about uncovering what was always there: the moment my dad captured through his lens. 📹Story & image © Joe Honda Archive. Genesis Imaging. Metro Imaging.

We are delighted to announce this year's @odtakeovers Photo Prize winner is American based experimental mixed-media artist @_ja_youn_g Our Director @stevemac65 once again joined the judging panel as part of our ongoing commitment in support of the creative community. JA Young explains... In Angels, I explore a dimension of political power that often goes ignored in contemporary, materialist Western culture: the world of the occult. Continuing my core critique of corporate, state, and religious institutions the world over, in this series, I delve deeper to examine the hidden forces that drive and manipulate human actions and events. #photographynow #opendoorsgallery #creativeminds #photoprize
