Edward Weston

As part of my research now I always take books from the library, you quality of the image is so much more meaningful and the look of a printed image is much more in tune with how I want to photography. As I wanted to look at doing ten portraits for my next brief I thought a book on this would help.

I cam across Portraits Edward Weston Aperture. Although Weston did a lot of landscapes the images in this book show his talent for portraits. They are all in black and white and I enjoyed reading about him as well.

Here is a couple of my favourites.


 Look at the piercing eyes
The rugged manliness of Manuel Hernandez Galvan, 1924
