Images and photographers that inspire me

Steve McCurry

I really cannot post of only one Steve McCurry photo because I love them all. McCurry has such a passion, I feel, express through his photographs, and the most amazing thing is that he photographs all over the world and the human aspect through each one of his series is always so intense and real. He always has vibrant colors and so much motion. This is something I would like to imitate. "What is important to my work is the individual picture. I photograph stories on assignment, and of course they have to be put together coherently. But what matters most is that each picture stands on its own, with its own place and feeling."

Rober Capa’s PAR29752

Rober Capa, the combat photographer. Like many photographer of his time he wanted to explore war. He was very courageous and yet reckless. “If your photographs aren't good enough, you're not close enough." Like his photo, he shares one fast emotion of his subjects, he suffers with them he shows the world a firsthand insight to wrecked life.

MARTIN PARR

Martin Parr is more of a contemporary figure in the photography world of Social photo and art photography. His work mostly deals with the world we more or less know; close to home. I really like the fact that he does not have to travel to unknown places of the world to produce beautiful images. I’ve been watching his work and I have learn from it.

Francisco Goya 3rd of May

Francisco Goya, the Spanish Royal family court painter. He was one of the first painters to paint real life happenings, not posed. Here in his 3^rd of May, though no present for the execution of these men, he imagined what it was like for them after he found their bodies the next morning. His vision to portray what really happened that night is admirable because it looks so conveying. Sometimes I also like to put things together in order to convey a scene that happened, the emotions, the light everything has to be there like this painting.

Kevin Carter’s Child vs Vulture

At first I could not prosses what was going on in this image. It took me a few seconds to realize that this scene could generate in you the most unpleasant feelings. I believe that this photograph shows the photographers passion for his work. Carter inspires me to, even in the face of famine, keep my calm and remain a photographer. Even if at the end you may kill yourself.

Cornell Capa’s NYC19539

Cornell Capa, the concerned photographer. "One thing that Life and I agreed right from the start was that one war photographer was enough for my family; I was to be a photographer of peace." I enjoy being in the action, the tornado’s eye, but I also like to be comfortable with my subjects, I like to get to know them and from then on I like to uncover the truth through my camera. I like to investigate people’s stories, photograph their emotions their daily life.
