Since beginning his photography journey in 2020, he has expanded his focus to include street, architectural, and fine art subjects\u2014pushing his visual language while staying rooted in curiosity and instinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ryuta Suzuki Q1<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for awarding the Gold in the Nature\/macro category!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started photography around 2020. I have loved insects and flowers since I was a child. So I think I have a better idea of what makes them beautiful and fascinating than other genres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, I am trying to increase my genre of speciality as a weapon. By trying Street Photography, Architecture, Fine Art, as well as insects and flowers, which are subject to be photographed depending on the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Insects are seen fighting at feeding stations and other places. But they seem to get along just for that brief moment on a beautiful flower. I took this photo thinking that people are the same way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although I only entered one picture this time. I think the Gold Award was a great joy for me, my family, and others around me. I felt it was the perfect opportunity to let people know about me by including it on my website and introducing my past works when I hold a solo exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, something you like. Second, choose pieces that will help you remember the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q2<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I purchased a mirrorless camera for my son&#8217;s entry into elementary school. I thought that a smartphone would be too far away to take pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I like best is nature photography. Since I was a child, I loved to play outside in all weathers. Especially summer, because there were so many insects. I love nature the most because I am outside a lot and have spent a lot of time seeing and touching insects and flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think it&#8217;s what I like best, so how do I make it look beautiful, cool, and memorable? What comes to mind more easily than other genres? With digital, I can release the shutter as many times as I want without fear of making mistakes, and I can go from learning to reviewing quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q3<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gold award winners are Flowers and Insects. I feel that many people dislike or dislike insects, so I want them to feel that the work is beautiful and not creepy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wanted to have a little originality, so I didn&#8217;t use a tripod, didn&#8217;t do depth compositing, and didn&#8217;t use strobes. Since the work is made from the very image captured by the macro lens of a full-frame camera, a thin or blurred focus plane is a learning point every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a secluded place where flowers and insects are usually seen casually, but not paid attention to. Themes often use my emotions at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external\"><i class=\"icon-instagram\" style=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external\"><i class=\"icon-globe-line\" style=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tkPAOfficial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external\"><i class=\"icon-facebook\" style=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/muse.international\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ryuta Suzuki is a photographer drawn to the intricate beauty of insects and flowers, a lifelong fascination that now informs his award-winning macro work.
