Master Photographer – Shinzo Maeda

March 4, 2011 • Tim Parkin

Shinzo Maeda with Linhof Super Technika

Shinzo Maeda may have been unkown to many western landscape photographers had he not been included the wonderful compilation book called “The World’s Top Photographers – Landscape”. Whatever you think of the book’s purpose or title, the content is mostly very good and the fact it advanced Shinzo awareness is a very good thing indeed. You see, Shinzo was one of those passionate and workaholic photographers that over time has produced a vast body of work that doesn’t conform to stereotypes. His cultural background definitely informed his vision but we can all relate to a photographer in love with his subject.

   Same here. I wish he like many of the other more famous photographers were around now to see how they would record the world today
