Syoin Kajii is a photographer with a new book out called
NAMI, the Japanese word for wave.
Lens Culture did an interview with him and says
"He is a young Buddhist monk ... watches the water patiently, waiting for a moment of surprise." NAMI is a series of photos of waves around the shores of Sado Island in Japan.
"The coast of the Island is about 270 km, and I choose places to photograph based on the information from weather forecasts or news from fishermen."The result of his patience captures the beauty of never-ending and always-changing turmoil of the ocean. Syoin's talent lies in his ability to capture both the sinister and playful views of the waves.
