Hokkaido (signed)

Publisher's description

My Hokkaido black and white landscape book contains 72 images taken during a 10 day trip to this Japanese Northern island in January 2020. The island at this time of the year is very cold, with temperatures down to -20 degrees, with winds coming out of Siberia and the Russian eastern coastline. There is deep snow everywhere and most life comes to a standstill as life grinds to a halt in these extreme conditions. Hokkaido provides a great deal of food for Japan and as a result has many farms dotted around the landscape.I spent most of the time photographing greenhouses, frozen trees, orchards and beached fishing boats during this time on the island. The snow on the landscape was very white, pristine and looked like icing on a cake! This trip provided me with many great opportunities to take black and white minimalist landscape photographs.
