Under the Sea
My brother-in-law, Toru Matsumoto (website), and his wife Akiyo have just published a book of color underwater photography around Tanegashima Island, where they live. Tanegashima is a small island off the southern tip of Kyushu (Kagoshima Prefecture) well known for scuba diving and surfing. Also, it’s the launch base for Japan’s space agency
He hadn’t told us anything about it, so it was a big surprise the other day when Mama pulled it out of an envelope. It’s only available now at a bookstore on the island and by email order frm Toru himself.

So the book must be self-published then, I guess? Sounds really interesting.

ooooh, beautiful stuff!
my brother-in-law’s brother is a big undersea photographer, and now runs picture diving tours around the world.
i love to look at it — while dry. i’m too scared to dive!

Some of those photos are absolutely stunning – do you know what camera was used
