Spring Scenery Gallery 2004

I've been to Yawata Highland in northern part of Hiroshima Prefecture in 2004 spring, as was the case in 2003. I had three objectives to take photographs there, (1) trees with vitality, (2) mild and fantastic scenery, (3) subtle and profound scenery. In the order of the three objectives, 13 photographs in total are placed below.
----- Sacred Tree -----
I took photos of beech trees and white birch trees with ultra wide-angle or fisheye lens to express vitality, energy of the trees.




----- Adoze Scenery -----
You might feel adoze in the gentle light of spring morning. Then you may fall asleep and see fantastic dreams. Scenery like a dream is my target of photography in 2004, and the fourth and the last one are my results.

----- Subtle and Profound -----
The less color has a photograph, the more you may feel colors in your mind. The less contrast has a photograph, the more you may feel depth of space. I wanted to draw delicate flavor of fresh verdure and spring wind on the films with my best technique.
