Finnish photographer Penti Samaratti's photo book "Hier Weit Entfernt" (Here Far Away). Samaratti devoted himself to the career of a photographer after engaging in photography education at the Helsinki University of Arts and Design, the largest art university in the Nordic countries, and receiving a scholarship in the early 90s after the age of 40. Since then, he has traveled around the world, including Finland, Northern Europe, England, Japan, and China, and has continued to take photographs, winning numerous awards both at home and abroad. The targets of Samaratti's work are "landscapes," "animals," and "humans." The vast land, the animals living there, and the human figure are poetically expressed in monochrome, and it is a quiet work that makes you feel lonely when warm. This book is a memoir of works from the 1960s to 2011, when Samaratti began taking photographs, and is a large 256-page book. German version.
