Catching Yamame with Junku Nishimura

“I have been fascinated with fishing in mountain streams even before I began photographing. I can catch a yamame, which is a very alert fish, only when I feel myself one with a rock and merged into the mountains. When I take pictures in the streets, I try to be one with a stone in the roadside again; the only difference is what I have in my hand – a rod or a camera.”
Junku Nishimura, Japan.

Junku Nishimura, one of my favourite Japanese photographers and a good friend of mine, has been busy lately, releasing a trilogy of personal photographic diaries on Blurb.com. We’ve ordered our copies, we recommend you do too.

  1. Hi I can’t find the online book anymore. Do you know where I could get it ? I find Junku’s work deep, poetic and crude in the mean time.
