Fine Art nominee

This was taken at the Oppe River in Saitama Pref.Japan. I look forward to seeing the swans flying in winter. This picture was taken when the young bird did not fly well and the parent bird immediately followed the young bird. I want you to see the serious look and beautiful flapping of a parent bird chasing a young bird.

I became interested in cameras when I was in high school. At that time, the goal was to shoot the Blue Impulse, an acrobatic flight team. After that, I didn't shoot for a while, but when I was 30, I started shooting again. At that time, I was mainly shooting landscapes in color. However, around 2018, I started taking monochrome photographs in earnest. I was convinced that taking a work in black and white would more accurately represent the scenery I felt. Since then, I have been shooting mainly Japanese landscapes and streets.I think I want you to feel the wonderful scenery of Japan from my work.
