For our latest assignment, we were asked to pick a photographer and to emulate their photos through their style and subject matter. After going through the numerous books at USF's library on photographers, there was one that stood out immensely. I had never heard of Arno Rafael Minkkinen, but his timeless photos truly reached out to me. He often uses his own body to show the similarities and harmony between us and nature. He shoots in film and does not manipulate the film to create 'trick' photos. I personally enjoy his theme because I feel that as our society keeps growing, we will keep growing farther from nature. I believe having photos of this connection will help reconnect
the two for many people.
Here are some examples of his work.
