Inspiration Creation








Photographing the Human Spirit

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-12618167

Watch the video linked above.  Think about why these images are so amazing.  It's not just the subject matter, but the way they are shot.  Look at angles, lines, etc. 

Write a three sentence reaction to the video.  What does his work say about photography?  What can photography say about the world?  How does the video inspire you? 

What can you shoot in the world around you that has the same effect as the work seen in the video?
