Brain Duffy Post 16

Duffy's images he captured during the 60's and 70's in Britain. After 30 years of taking pictures one day he went out back to the back yard and burned all his work.

He never sold a piece of his work during that time, never published a book and rarely did interviews. Until his son recovered some of his negatives and brought his career back to life.

Richard Avedon Post 15

Richard Avedon captured things that he was afraid of in a way and things he couldn't deal with at certain times in his life. He also enojyed captureing the way clothes looked on people that on moving. He would have his models jump, run and do whatever it took to capture the perfect action shot of the clothes.

He also liked animals and used then in his shots sometimes and he did this one photo shoot with a lady and this snake creeps me out there is no way I would/could do this. 


William Klein Post 14

I came across Mr. William Klein and I recalled some of his images that he has shot and I can remeber seeing them at some point in my life rather it was in a school book or movie I have seen this guys work throughout my life. He did films as well

He was from New York and shots on the streets. He would capture whats going on in the busy bustling city during this time. He is radical and unique and has influenced photographers to this day.



Ciril Jazbec Post 13

 I cam across Ciril Jazbec when looking for photographers and I really enjoyed his work it's something different and not what you see everyday. His work is taken place mainly in greenland where there are about 250 people to 500 dogs. Sign me up and when do I leave sounds like my type of town.

It's a total different world up north in the cold I can only imagine how people live up there. I don't know how I feel about all the polar bear fur I see but if it's to keep them warm and alive up there I guess it's okay.



Patrick J. Adams Post 12

Patrick J. Adams is a actor on a show I watch called Suits. I had no idea he did photography on the side until they mentioned it during one of the commercial breaks. So I hopped on his website and took a look around his gallery and I was highly impressed.

Catherine Opie Post 11

Catherine Opie is an example of what happens when you mess around taking photos and it ends up to be an amazing pieces of work. She did a thing with mustaches that got a lot of attention and got the topic ball rolling on gender identity
.

 Catherine was the ground breaking photographer for people who were struggling with gender identity. At that time it was not much up for topic like it is now a days but she helped make awareness about the topic.


Nan Goldin Post 10

Nan Goldin was a very very real person and captured pretty much every moment of her life and everything they did. She was a very open person and love is love to her and lived an very different life for that time frame.

She was taking pictures in the 80's when she was in rehab of her self while she was sober. She lived 15 years of her life  a night owl and taking pictures at night that she didn't know that light effected the film.


Annie Leibovitz Post 9

Annie Leibovitz is an amazing woman that saw people for who they are and wanted to catch them in the real act especially when she was working for the rolling stones. She captured artist on the road and during their intimate times they had not performing. She was super lucky to have enjoyed the 60 era and worked for rolling stones.

She also has an eye and an imagition almost that she brings to life and then captures it for the world to see. She is a natural that's for sure I love all of her creative ideas they are always different and kinda pushes the limit.
