日本京都
歷經18個月的籌備，終於成就了一場令人難忘的日本攝影之旅。京都的嵐山竹林，是從一開始就夢想中的拍攝地點。連續數週不眠不休地拍攝，卻始終未能捕捉到理想畫面。耐心是關鍵，因為大量的觀光客加上大自然的多變，風勢讓竹子搖曳彎曲，使得拍攝幾乎無法完成。時間所剩無幾，僅剩最後一天，最後一夜成了捕捉日本聞名遐邇的真正禪意氛圍的唯一機會。夜幕降臨時，細雨開始飄落，讓竹子的色彩更加鮮明，將這片森林轉化為真正神奇的境地。
The Arashiyama Bamboo Grove shots are worth the price alone, the light through those stalks is unreal. You can tell the weeks of shooting with no rest went into getting every frame right.
Eighteen months of prep really shows in how the Arashiyama light was captured, especially those early morning frames before the crowds arrive. I've flipped through it three times and keep landing on the same few spreads.
The bamboo grove shots alone are worth the price—the way the light filters through those stalks feels almost surreal. You can tell every frame was carefully planned, and it’s the kind of photography book I’ll keep coming back to.
