This blog will act as a learning log for the "Art of Photography" course which I'm studying. This course is the introductory module for the Open College of the Arts (OCA), Photography Degree course.

Shigeru Yoshida

More inspirational work on Lens Culture - https://www.lensculture.com/articles/shigeru-yoshida-border . At first glance I mistook the work of Shigeru Yoshida as being little more than the long exposure beach shots that appear frequently on Flickr and which I attempted to take myself until I started this course. However, in practice this work has a subtlety to it that far surpasses the gaudy Flickr counterparts.

I think it's the subdued and delicate tones which makes the images so interesting. Levels of contrast are very low and the compositions are simple and understated.
