The article was talking about all of his accomplishments and what he dies now in Africa. He helps support conservation projects to save animals in Africa. His pictures are powerful and the fact that he doesn't use lenses and he actually goes up to these potentially dangerous animals makes his work so much better.
This is my favorite photo by him because it just looks cool and the fact that he was standing basically face to face with an elephant to take this picture. The photo is also just aesthetically pleasing.
I would say that this picture uses the rule of simplicity because the elephant is being focused on because the background is very simple. I'd also say that he is using balance because you have the elephant in the middle and then the two big ears almost identical to each other balances out the photo.
1. He uses a medium format film camera. He uses a 55 mm, 105mm, and 200mm lens.
2. He takes photos like these because he cares about these animals that are being poached and he is doing this to give these animals a last testament.
3. He hopes to bring awareness to these animals who are being brutally murdered or injured for all the wrong reasons and who are going to go extinct.
"You wouldn't take a portrait of a human being from a hundred feet away and expect to capture their spirit; you'd move in close."
1. His newest focus is his project "inherit the dust" which is huge canvases with his portraits on them in the middle of a dump.
2. He took unpublished images from his previous project, sent them to California where they were printed and then sent to Kenya where he constructed metal frames for the images.
3. I think that it might help people see these animals in a new light and stop them from murdering them for there tusks or hoofs.
4. They just look really cool and they male me feel sorry for the animals that are being slaughtered.
