Journey into Colors

Visited a rice paddy area in Japan last spring. Rice paddies were filled with water to grow rice seedlings. The water surfaces reflected the sky color which was gradually changing from blue to orange. A paraglider was flying between the water surface and the sky, which were colored beautifully.

I was born, raised and resides in Japan working as an electronic engineer.
I always brought my camera as I traveled and enjoyed taking photos. By the time I knew, I was very much into it buying better cameras, lenses, and pursuing it. Especially focusing on capturing the beautiful four seasons in my mystical land of Japan. I get the thrills every time I capture the evanescent beauty of the nature which will forever live in my work.
So now, photography is not just my hobby, it is definitely a big part of my life and I will continue shooting the photos that are hopefully ‘evocative’ to many.
