Curiosity


Sometimes my photos are simply about the story. After first becoming aware of the deer on Bowen Island, this was a photo I could not miss. And with these two very different experiences I could be tempted to think there is something about deer living on islands, is there?
The photo was taken on Miyajima Island where deer roam freely and are very much part of the landscape (though not allowed in the restaurants).

Japan Special - Floating Torii


The Floating Torii on Miyajima Island is well visited and has been photographed in all its splendour and from every angle. This journey through Japan has been an interesting experience for me as going sight-seeing is usually not something I do when on the road. So here I was, looking at the Torii from all angles myself and I decided to simply stay with my black & white project and to find out what the Floating Torii meant to me.
