Because all what we have is now
This photo was shot with Canon Powershot G9. There’s some noise but it isn’t so bad, considering that it is a compact camera. My G9 suffered crash landing when I was climbing on Takao, so she won’t be with me anymore.
However, this is one of the photos I shot with her in 2008.
A friend gave me this photo book by Habu some years ago. I love it. The skies and landscapes are amazing and meditative. My favorite photo is on page 24 in Taddert Morocco, where a bird is captured in godrays..
The photos are like small windows into another world. They are oddly vacant but yet hypnotic.
I am really interested to know more about the photographer. Here is what appears to be Habu’s official homepage.
Photos of landscapes help us to see how beautiful our planet actually is. There are many great landscape photographers here in Japan. And you can’t mention landscape photography in Japan without mentioning Habu..
Photographer is like a painter who seeks to capture the beauty on this planet.
It makes me think of many things.. How to be more aware of my surroundings, and how to look at the scenery in some new way..
Sky is the limit..
Shot without tripod (holding camera against handrail) with Fujifilm X100. Slight processing in Aperture.
