My urban photography, then, has emerged from two highly-realist traditions: the practice of kado [the way of poetry] and Henri Cartier-Bresson’s street photography. I took up photography because a lens can capture what a haiku cannot - an almost-exact replica of what I am seeing when I experience a “haiku moment.”
For me, the way of photography never ceases.
