Frog Leaping. In this book, Mieczysław ("Mitch") Alland links his photographs to the idea of haiku. As in the case of his images, the haiku poses the question of concentration and emptiness, which renders the sense of time superfluous. To a certain extent, it is also about what is left unsaid, prompting the reader to make his or her own interpretation. As it should be, everything is linked. Time and place fold into a single frame. Again and again and again. Continents merge into one another. Lions and dancers, salesmen and fishmongers, Buddhas and mannequins, they're all "here", they're all "now". . Publisher: self-published
