Photographers i have been looking at.

Gavin Parry is another photographer i have been looking at lately only because my personal management teacher (Katy Sugett) told me about him. I c`n relate to this photographer because i feel that the work i do is similar or if not similar then work i like and want to become better at.

Here is some of Gavin Parrys photography


I have always been fascinated and interested in a laundrettes because of how old they look. I am thinking on doing a project my self and photographing different laundrettes in the area. I think that would be a good project to do. 



I think this photograph is such a good portrait.
it has a feel to it i cant explain. i like the way the composition is and how old the room is to go with how old the man is.




What i like about this photographer is all the colour in the photograph and the oldness to.
I think what makes this photograph work is the busyness and the person in the centre of the image. 








Raghu Rai.


Raghu Rai is a indian photographer and i am new to his work but because i am interested in photojournalism i feel that Raghu Rai has some powerful images imaginable. This thing i like about this photographer is how attached he is to his work. I think being a photojournalist you have to put you personal life and your photography side to different sides and when taking powerful and disturbing photographs you need to because i think it could do you some damage.

Work by Raghu Rai


What i find so good about Raghu Rai's work is the detail and again the composition. I admire him for taking these powerful images and showing us what goes on and what has gone on in are world.


The photographs below were taken in 1984 and is the 25 anniversary of the Bhopal disaster.
