Independent Project Part Two

For the first part of my independent project I studied Robert Capa's work. Now I need to take inspiration from his work and make my own. Since there is no war going on I can't do war photography. But I think major themes in Robert Capa's work is that nothing is posed, it is all spur of the moment. And he has the ability to capture the mood of the moment. I will try to emulate that by taking street photography or just capturing unposed moments.

David Burnett

A few days ago I was telling my dad about the photographer I am researching for my independent project, Robert Capa, and he responds by saying, "You know my cousin is photographer who photographed the Vietnam War." I had no idea and was shocked that he hadn't told me previously. He couldn't remember his name so I Googled "Burnett photographer" and a bunch of photos of Bob Marley popped up attached to the name David Burnett. I did some further research and I found Burnett's website. Turns out Burnett has photographed everyone from president to Olympic athletes to soldiers to war victims and refugees.
Here are a few links to his work:
