Week 19 David Maisel

David Maisel is a photographer I stumbled across whilst reading an interview with Simon Norfolk who rated him of one of his favourite photograpers, I decided to check out his photography work which is mainly of areal shots showing environmentally affected areas, I thought this was interesting as the areal shots give a lot more impact than a landscape photograph would have done because this wouldn't have shown the scale of the damage. 

Also on his website was a small documentary of tin cans that contain peoples remains which have over the years started to react with the tins giving these amazing purple and blue colours. The thing that I want to take from David Maisel is that is important to do your project justice but also for a portfolio point of view it is important to have a mix of different types of photography rather than just one although with your style.
