Book excerpt: The Shinzo Maeda photographs assembled for this volume are fascinating examples of this renowned Japanese nature photographer's ability to capture the beauty of nature. In some ways they are evocative of the Haiku -- Japan's traditional verse form -- & appear graced by the same contemplative understanding. Maeda's photographic meditations are inspired by the rhythm of seasons -- growth, expiration -- & by the moods nature's cyclic change works in people. Among trees, leaves & grasses he discovers those lines & structures which manifest in compelling detail nature's majestic theatre.
