Tokihiro Sato

I made a very interesting discovery today.  I usually don't write a blog, I just post a photo but this I had to share.  So in my junior year of college I took that lovely class called communications.  I hated that class, it wasn't the teacher or anything, it was the idea of speaking in front of a class of freshmen.  Anyway I did alright, I ended up with a B.  This is besides the point.

I did one of my speeches on a guy named Tokihiro Sato.  I believe the point of the speech was to talk about something we like... well I like photography but apparently that subject was too broad, so I picked a random photographer.  Tokihiro Satos work really stood out to me, he did photography with a pin light and made his own designs.  The speech was probably confusing to the class, but I did it anyway.

So I made a discovery today.  I was researching some photography magazines and books that I may want for some reading material because we decided to finally do some photography classes at Best Buy.  I remembered I had bought a Tokihiro Sato book for the speech I did.  That book used.... are you ready? is worth 85 bucks.  I know I didn't pay more than 10 for it!

So all in all, it was an awesome discovery, I may hold onto it for a while.  I am going to share a couple of photos by him :D.
