"Tomohide Ikeya photography from the ""BREATH"" series.  ""We only realize the true value of the things in the moment of losing them, ""BREATH"" is my latest work, focuses on breath, a vital activity of human-beings which is controlled by ourselves. An infinite number of air bubbles appeared in the water enables us to see 'breath' with vivid clarity.  Although we breath unconsciously in our ordinary lives, it is not easy to breath under water Losing air that we need for life, being enabled to breath, being controlled by water. We realize true value of things that always exist around us, in the moment of losing them. Some people accepts its control and wait for the end to come without bidding defiance to it, The others are thirst for life, struggling against it and trying to control themselves. That is the contrast of holding on to life, which appears clearly under water. ""BREATH"" asks viewers questions.  What is the things you should know the value of, hold on to and control? And what is the most necessary thing for your life?"" (via)"
