Africa

1) In this article, photographer Nick Brandt is interviewed. He tells the interviewer about how endangered animals are his inspiration. Also, he talks about getting up close and personal to take his photos rather than using a special lens to zoom.

2)

3) In this picture, there are two lions touching heads. This photo is my favorite because, it's simple but it tells a story.
4) An evident rule of photography in the picture is simplicity because all focus is on the subjects and the background is simple.
5) He uses a Pentax 67II with 2 fixed lenses.
6) His reason for taking these photo's is to show these endangered animals just 'being' in there habitats before they are no longer.
7) His hope for these photos is to show people these beautiful animals that are disappearing at our hands and make them want to do something. 
8) " There is also something deeply, emotionally stirring and affecting about the plains of Africa—those vast, green rolling plains punctuated by graphically perfect acacia trees under the huge skies."
