During Cherry Blossom time in Japan you see many beautiful sights. But sometimes you see a tree that really captures your attention. I love photographing landscapes and nature so when traveling around I always have my eyes open. We were on our way to an editorial portrait shoot fro a magazine when I saw this tree and had to stop to photograph it. The colours and flowers were amazing and the contrast against the deep blue sky made fro some beautiful photos.
Graveyard, Ibaraki, Japan.
I think it’s a fascinating thing to look at how people all around the world bury and pay tribute to the dead. I stopped and photographed this graveyard in The Japanese countryside just out of Tokyo. It caught my eye with its aesthetic as I drove by and I felt compelled to stop and explore. As a photographer I take many photos that I don’t necessarily understand at the time. But I feel that they are like historical documents that hold their importance in their aesthetic. Hopefully to be seen and admired a long time in the future.
