Africa
I feel like its a good thing that he's photographing African wildlife because lots of it is in danger. He went from being a normal videographer for celebrities but made the transformation to wildlife which would be a big change. He is not just photographer he is an activist which makes his photo that much better.
This photo shows the skull of a giraffe lying in the desert while other giraffes are walking away on the horizon. This represents how animals are danger and how few there are left. This image uses the rule of thirds because the giraffes in the back are one of the made focuses and they are located in the top right of the screen.
Nick Brandt
He uses a 6711 lens to take genuine black and white photos and it has no zoom so he can capture the true spirit of the animals. His reasoning behind taking the photos is to show the animals as they truly are in the wild before it goes away. He hopes to spread awareness about the animals and save them from going extinct because of humans.
I had a vision in mind: I wanted to create an elegy, a likely last testament to an extraordinary, beautiful natural world and its denizens that is rapidly disappearing before our eyes. I wanted to show these animals as individual spirits, sentient creatures equally as worthy of life as us.
Brandt's newest focus is showing the destruction of humans in what used to be animals homes by using images on boards where they used to live. He selected then printed pictures of animals and places them on steel frames. It shows people how they've effected the animals instead of just seeing it in other places. It makes me feel sad that the animals homes had changed so much and how they would be sad and disappointed in us.
