Henry Wessel: Night Walk
The last artists book I looked at was Henry Wessel. His work is unique in the way that it shows life in a clean simple form. The images remain mostly human less or have one or two people in them. This creates almost an end of the world feel. It’s like all of human existence disappeared. The monochrome images are very light and not highly contrasted. It creates more of a comfortable feel and makes the images feel fresh. The images feel so clean as there is almost no garbage on the streets or leaves. I find the nighttime pictures the most interesting. The artist spook to how he feels the lights at night are like stage lights and light up the important things. It creates a dynamic setting of light paths. The nighttime skies in the photos look like they were taken right after sunset when there was still a tiny bit of light left. It looks to be that way as the skies are lighter at the bottom and fade into a deeper black. When there are people in the photographs many of them seem very staged. They are staged in everyday life positions though it creates a very realistic version of life.

This was my first time ever photographing in the complete dark. I believe my images came out very well and am happy with my experience shooting in the dark.

Marc Wendelski Marc Wendelski is a geometrician anarchist, a meticulous amateur, a liberate surveyor. In his book “nage libre” he used his camera to capture landscapes and people. In most of his pictures he used diagonal or asymmetrical structure to composed his pictures. And the square pictures, with all sides of equal length, help him to emphasize the objects in the picture. Also, he used wide angle lenses to picture landscapes. Wide angle lenses give you a wide view and it’s perfect for capturing expansive landscapes. In Marc Wendelski’s pictures, the wide angle lenses help him to capture the whole landscapes and since wide angel make things look far away, it makes the scene magnificent. When noticing the color of his pictures, they always have a low saturation. The color in the pictures are not faithful to be reality. Even in the photos he probably took in summer, which trees are green, they convey a desolate feeling. Among all his photos, the sky is always white or light grey an...

Dennis Hopper Born May 17th 1936, he started taking art classes when he was 13. He started out as an actor but he developed a bad reputation for being a difficult actor, he turned to photography in the 1960’s.  He used a Nikon 33 mm camera that his wife gave him for his birthday. He took a lot of monochrome photographs and when he photographed in color he focused in on the way the colors worked together. He has captured many politically driven photographs but he has also captured many portraits of friends and the people around him in life. He liked to colors as an abstract design and would often photograph graffiti from the gangs in Los Angeles. For the series of photographs that I looked at he chose to capture these colorful designs in polaroid photos.  Artists Work My Photos

1/ what do you intend to photograph? I want to capture the real identity of different people. I want to photograph people when they are doing something in their bedrooms. I will start by asking questions: what you usually do in your bedroom. I want to find out the unknown sides of them. So I will mainly focus on my close friends who I have known for a while and find out either dark, crazy, weird sides by asking questions. will use a wide-angle lens trying to show their personality through the room decorations. My subjects might not look at the camera. And I hope they are comfortable with what they are doing like there is without a camera and outside observer. 2- why do you want to photograph the subject? I feel people all show totally different sides in public. It is necessary to hide some parts of the self. But it is interesting to explore what people are hiding or not brave enough to show. I know decent people take naked portraits or living under a mess because of mental p...
