Nothing is in focus(English version)
Is there anything wrong with pictures where nothing is in focus?
But I don’t think so!
Christopher Nolan’s amazing film “Inception” really used out-of-focus and in-focus shots to show the difference between the human subconscious and reality. I think out-of-focus footage really sticks with you.
And have you ever had that moment when you point your camera at a park or street corner, and even though it’s still out of focus, you find it super beautiful? I totally have!
Then, when I stumbled upon Japanese photographer Satoru Watanabe’s photo-book “Inception,” I was totally convinced that out-of-focus shots are fascinating.
At first, it might seem a little selfish, but I’m hoping to slowly build a collection of out-of-focus scenes that I’ve captured with my camera. While I’m enjoying these out-of-focus works, I’m really looking forward to seeing my own style change and evolve.
Please do take a look at my work, even if only briefly.
