In contemplative photography, a crucial step to making an image is “understanding one’s perception.
” This means to still the mind, remain present with what is seen, and appreciate its essence.
It is an intentional pause.
It is difficult because our natural tendency is to rush, overthink, become distracted, or to grasp impulsively.

This is a great exhibit, outdoors in a shrine. I’m actually really glad I got to see it in the rain. This is a 13 minute long tour showing the whole exhibit and a little bonus exhibit next-door. This is a mostly Korean group of photographers, it’s a Korean photo festival that is participating in this Japanese photo festival. @kgplus @yukiiwanami @yipf_official

Everything in this garden was so beautifully done. It’s kind of crazy and I know how much work it is to keep things so simple and clean. Built in 1610. You have to reserve an advance and you have to take a tour and the tour guide was pretty stiff. I do really wish I could just walk around and sit and quietly enjoy this garden, but I’m grateful I got to see it.
Great scenography (exhibition design) in this show Great scenography (exhibition design) in this show sponsored by a French champagne brand. This is the fifth year they have sponsored a show for the festival. 
@sarishibat  is the artist - the work comes out of a residency done on the champagne grape farm in 🇫🇷.

The exhibition title Dotok Days derives from dotoku (literally “virtue of the soil”), a term used by Sōetsu Yanagi , founder of the Mingei movement, to describe the spiritual climate of Nanto. It means knowing that one cannot live without mutual support. It means entrusting oneself to a force far greater than anything one could plan. It means that the labours and prayers of unnamed people accumulate in the land, quietly supporting daily life from beneath.
OK, honestly, I was skeptical that I would like th OK, honestly, I was skeptical that I would like this exhibition of photos of famous people but the very first person was siouxsie Sue, who is my favorite - and that won me over. Of course the venue is so beautiful and the video of him talking about his work is very modest and heartfelt.
