Timo Kelaranta - The Quiets | LensCulture

Timo Kelaranta has inspired at least two or three generations of photographers since he first began teaching photography at the influential University of Art & Design in Helsinki (Taik) in the mid-1970s. His latest little masterpiece, The Quiets, is small in size, and as the title suggests, quiet. But each image is magical and potent, like a visual haiku.

This book is a gem.
