“Dogs and Demons” recently discussed here mentions a Japanese photographer named Shibata Toshio who takes dramatic photographs of the natural environment blended with Japanese construction projects.
You can read his profile and see some of Shibata’s most famous works on the Nikon Web Gallery.
One of my favorite shots is of a concrete wall in the forest.
Apparently one of his most famous photography books available is “Dam“. He has also done “Visions of Japan
“, and “Landscape
“, all of which I am sure would make good coffee table books… Though judging by the amazon prices the books would probably cost more than the coffee table itself…
There are other Shibata photos available on Luminous-Lint.
Cold hard imagery. Interesting stuff.
