Jon - A conversation with John Gossage

This exhibition talk with photographer, John Gossage, discusses the work of John and his photography book, The Pond.  This video showed me how you really can make a photograph of literally anything that you find interesting, and it be beautiful.  John Gossage photographed landscapes of a pond and other things that he found interesting and beautiful.  I like that in it he says that “anything that was in the way of what I wanted to photograph, was also beautiful”.  I think that this shows that even if you don’t set up/frame your photograph perfectly, it does not make it any less beautiful. This video really makes us think differently about how we see the world and decide to photograph it.
