I first came across Michael Kenna a few years ago when his name popped up while I was doing some web searches on Japan. Kenna is a British photographer now resident in the US who has spent much time in the last few years photographing in Japan.
Having admired his work online and in library books I was delighted to discover that a newly published retrospective of his work, Images of the Seventh Day, had just recently been published and for once the price was under $50 It's now on its way and I will finally have my own selection of Kenna's work.
I won't try to describe his stunning landscapes. Instead I will point you to Kenna's website where there are many images on display and in particular to a couple of short videos, Halflight and Hokkaido, that provide a great introduction to the photographer and his work.
Images of the Seventh Day is available from Amazon.com
