Photograph by Michael Kenna.

The eeriness and curiosity about this photograph is what really draws me in. It makes me wonder why there's a latter in the middle of the woods. The fogginess makes me think of a dream-like state, because it seems so unresolved. Kenna takes a lot of photographs of trees in ways that give them personalities and moods, which relate to the direction I would like to see some of my work get into. I've always had such a great appreciation in trees, and I love looking at them, but I am not often inspired by nature photography of trees. However, Kenna's work really inspires me that I can shoot trees as I do people, because every tree has its own personality, and different surroundings.
