I still want to know how he managed to maintain the slope

**lorba** · 20th Jan 2004, 14:10

that's something on my mind too.

I've tried piling up sand and plant as dense at the slopes.. but doesnt seem to hold.

maybe he uses some wood at the base or acrylic to hold back the gravel. By allowing the glosso to grow thickly towards the rear, it can both cover the wood or acrylic and at the same time deliver that sloping feeling. Just my wild guess!

Could be due to the use of a wide angle lens causing this barrel-distortion. And therefore making the slope looks steeper than actually is. Just a guess!

I'm not sure if this is considered an answer. If he hasn't done so well to capture the passion of so many people around the world, he'll not be the CEO of Aqua Design Amano(ADA).

His so call process in doing a scape for everybody to see and telling us that it's the touch that makes wonders are just the first part of his theories. I'm sure he has some technique behind that are secrets to everybody IMO.
