TITLE: The Under lines

The pictures were taken at Yodogawa riverside: the biggest river in Osaka.
Having multiple railway companies, there are many railway bridges on the river along with other bridges.
These bridges are not so unique figure solely however combination with two or more other bridges,
you can find unique bridge-cityscapes, especially shooting at under (or between) these lines.
All pictures were being captured with long exposure and panorama technique.
I’d like to underline: with sturdy observation and different point of view, you can still find unique locations in your locals in this challenging time.

AUTHOR: Yoshihiko Wada (Japan)

As well as being a passionate photographer, Yoshihiko is also a professional sound designer in the very demanding video game industry. The long days and nights debugging games or sitting in a sound studio would eventually wear him out.

In search of something new and fresh, Yoshihiko’s passion for photography started in 2011 when he purchased his first DSLR, a Nikon D90 which was the beginning of his unique photography career.

Waterfalls were his first obsession and found himself totally enamored with the surrealistic smooth flow caused by ND filters and found himself visiting a creek near his home every weekend, and experimenting with various filters.

He gradually changed his preferences and photography style and now finds himself in his most comfortable place in the black and white fine art genre. He finds inspiration from both Julia Anna Gospodarou and Joel Tjintjelarr, who are pioneers of this genre. He learned the basics of this distinct post process style from them, daylight hyper long exposure with high contrast black and white processing. He now incorporates his own ideas, themes, colorings, and methods into his images.

He believes his photographs are not philosophical or difficult and everyone can easily understand them when they first see them. He thinks of his photographs as entertainment and if people can be entertained and feel joy from them he’d be very happy.
