Ratcliffe- weekly artist post

Robert Adams

His project i looked at was "A portrait in landscapes".  His photos were in black and white, so you could tell he really looked for good light to make the photo interesting. He used a deep depth of field to incorporate the subjects in the photos as well as the background landscape. This also allowed it to look sharp all throughout the photo. Some of the photos had selective focus to draw your attention to certain parts of the photos.


The content of his photos were mostly of people interacting with spaces. Nature spaces, like forests or clearings. In a couple of the photos there was this older woman with her white dog.

I like this set of photos together in the book. I'm not sure if i like all of them individually, but when put together they tell a story of a woman and her dog traveling to interesting places in our world. I like his choice of the black and white as well, in made it more intriguing and made you think more of the purpose of the photo.
