Charles Freger's is a French photographer. His work mainly follows two themes sport and military. I recently bought his Rikishi book, which is deffinately worth a look.
James Nachtwey is considered by some as the greatest modern day war photographer,his approach definitely follows Capa's first rule of war photography ' to get close' he calls it "in the same intimate space that the subjects inhabit," and that sense of closeness is passed on to the viewer. In this video James is discussing how wish to photograph the outbreak of a new drug-resistant strain of tuberculosis.
The beginning is the same in this video, but James goes on to showcase his life's work. If you can find it watch war photographer, which follows James around several conflict zones, it's amazing how quiet he works and moves around his subjects.
Happy New Yeah, hope your enjoying the snow. I have been looking at Jesse Chehak's work lately and it is great, especially th Fool's Gold series, which is currrently looking for a publisher, deffinately deserves one. Can deffinately see a Steven Shore influence in his work.
