Photographers that inspire me (Michael Wolf)

Michael Wolf


Michael Wolf inspired me when I was doing an A level in photography. Researching Michael Wolf made be think about my own photography. I start to think more about the way I take photographs and how I could find a good picture within the landscape. I think this photograph is one of my favourite pictures because it makes me want to stare and keep looking at the background. Also the way he has thought about how the photograph will look once he has captured the moment.  It makes me think of lots of things when I look at this picture. One thing I start to pick up on is the sheet, it could be that you are on the beach looking at the city in the foreground or it could even be a photograph representing what is beneath the city. This picture is also on the front of Michael Wolf's book called 'Hong Kong Back Door'.







Below are more Photographs of Michael Wolf's work:















































From Researching Michael Wolf and liking his work so much I booked a trip to Barcelona and started taking my own photographs. When I was in Barcelona I was thinking  about  Michael Wolf  and how would he take pictures and if he was going to take a photograph then what would he be looking for. I think from looking at his work and doing research it has made my pictures become more interesting and made me a better photographer.
