Lovely review Murray of what looks to be a beautifully put together book of Michael's work.

[@MurrayLivingston]

Thanks Dane. It really is!

[@RFranks]

Nice review and some interesting thoughts on it, there is a sense of stillness in his work that I've seen in some of my other favourites like Robert Adams.

[@MurrayLivingston]

Thanks!

EXCELLENT PRESENTATION...KEEP IT UP!

[@MurrayLivingston]

Thank you Mike! :)

[@mikearnspiger9715]

@@MurrayLivingston you are very welcome...nice to see a quality presentation on you tube for a change...content and production very very well done.

How can he afford staying for so long in Japan?

[@MurrayLivingston]

He's been a successful photographer for many years, hosting exhibition at numerous galleries and as well as doing commercial photographic work.

Unfortunatelly you ruined the video by adding your face over the book. Seems like you did not ask before posting: what is more important? Kenna's photography or my face?

[@MurrayLivingston]

Thanks for the comment! I'll make sure to increase the size of my face next time.

[@Indrikmyneur]

Thanks for expressing the size of your ego@@MurrayLivingston.

I didn't finish the video. @MurrayLivingston
Sarcasm aside, it was meant as a feedback. Maybe I was too sarcastic, but I found it too distracting, especially with Kenna's photos, where composition, calmness and solitude play such an important role, so I switched to the another videos of his work.
