I love the photos of Garry Winogrand<\/a>. Why? Let me explain:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

My reasons:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. His dynamic and “edgy” compositions. He pushed the boundaries of what one could do with a wide angle 28mm lens in street photography<\/li>\n
  2. His gutsy attitude: Winogrand was quite bold in his shooting. He got close and was quite aggressive to get the shots he wanted.<\/li>\n
  3. He was constantly experimenting with form and composition in his photography. He didn’t just shoot the standard and boring compositions. He experimented with tilting his frame, using a flash, and adding more (or fewer) subjects to his frame.<\/li>\n
  4. His love of life! It shows he loved life through his photos. Ultimately I think all of us as photographers must love life more than we love photos.<\/li>\n
  5. His disregard for rules and convention, and following his own path!<\/li>\n
  6. His philosophy: “I photograph the world to see what the world looks like photographed<\/a>.”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Some photos I shot from his book, “Figments”:<\/p>\n
