    "日本語でkanebluesさんの写真の紹介をさせていただきます。

    Flickrに参加したばかりの頃、僕は一枚の写真に出会いました。その写真は単純ながらとても美しく、あたかも一遍の詩の中で輝く言葉のような印象を持ちました。それ以来、僕はkanebluesさんの写真に魅了され続けています。
    「写真」とは何か? 「撮るという行為」は人にとってどの様なことなのか?
    それらの素朴な疑問への答えを、僕はkanebluesさんの写真を見ることで、僅かながらも、知ることが出来たと思っています。
    商業的で強度を求めた虚しい写真が多い中、僕はkanebluesさんの写真に、モノの本当の姿が写し撮られていると強く感じます。
    それは、おそらく詩人でもあるkanebluesさんの、本質を見抜く眼差しが、ファインダーを通しても少しも損なわれることなく、現れているからだと思うのです。
    僕は彼の写真に出会えたことに感謝しています。そしてそれ以上に、これらの写真を撮られているkanebluesさんに感謝の気持ちを持っています。"

    "Whenever I wonder if there is anything of interest in the everyday world, I stop by kane’s photo stream. Yesterday, he showed me that an egg contains the mysteries of the universe. Today, he gives proof that a stairway has magical properties. I look forward to visiting his photo stream tomorrow for my daily dose of wonder. Jump into his photo stream and prepare to enjoy a world of humor, grace, and surprises"

    "OK, what to write...

    I think I will move to Hawaii and start a business with this talented photographer. We will call it "Kane And Duane's Tropicameras."

    We will have sushi for dinner, drink piña coladas, walk the beaches, interact with the locals, and take pictures all day in our island paradise.

    People will enjoy our wicked sense of humor, our devastatingly good looks, and the talent that exudes from our pores like pineapple juice.

    Ah, to dream.

    For now, avail yourself of the amazing work here. Take in the sights and smells, the colors and magic.

    It's like a vacation for the soul...without the irritating sand in your shorts."

    "I have discovered Kane's photography, AND poetry more than a year ago and I have always been fascinated by the beauty of the place he lives in.
    His gifted eye for composition will take you from a splash of colors to bikini trends, to nature's wonders. Thank you for letting us into your world, one that I have yet to see. Coconut trees, wait for me!"
