Struggling
for inspiration one day I picked up the closest photography book to hand, Icons
of Photography: the 20th Century.
I tried to find the simplest photography to emulate and I chose "The Fork"
by Andre Kertesz (1928) - the original is shown for reference here. A couple
of
hours later I had almost given up in frustration. How can such a simple composition
be so hard top replicate?
I learnt a lot that afternoon and realized how much more I had yet to learn
too. |
