Unfortunately, too many shots reflect this new democracy by being ‘just another photo.’ The photographs of Toshi Kowano, however, consistently reflect something greater than just pressing a button: Whether it’s high art, pure inspiration, or the subtlety of mere suggestion, Kowano’s work is never ‘just another photo.’" —Leslie Anthony, Creative Director, SBC SKIER magazine
