THE BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY SERIES: IMAGINATION IS OUR ONLY LIMIT

I believe that IMAGINATION IS THE ONLY LIMIT when it comes to what can be expressed or accomplished with black and white photography. Many thanks to those who are following this series....I hope it contains some things of interest and look forward to feedback and suggestions for another series and /or a workshop.
Speaking of unlimited imagination, today I discovered the sublime work of Japanese photographer Tokihiro Satō (see photo) whose imagination seems to be without limits.

John L. Tran said the following about Tokihiro in The Japan Times:

“Leaving the city and the sea behind, later works in the “Photo-Respiration” series center around snow and trees, and Sato hints that while in the forest producing these images he empathized with the pantheism of Shinto and the act of worshipping natural objects. Indeed it’s hard to imagine an artist from a culture other than Japan’s producing this particular blend of technical precision, intimation of the spiritual, and loving regard of the natural world that can be seen in these images.”
