Hi there – sorry about the delay in responding, have been away with work all week. The splashes of red in this image are great. They pull the eye into the picture.

Thanks for your kind words about my book. Trying my best to get it in people’s hands here in the US. It’s doing well in Japan. Hopefully we can get some more sold in the US. After 4 years of shooting and many exhibitions for this project; it’s a great feeling to have the book published.

Your landscapes are always very vivid. Cool.
