Africa: Black and white

I really liked the Africa photographs. I like how they're not amateur taken and they seem really neat and professional in a way. I like how its black and white, its makes it look more majestic.

This is my favorite photograph because I think Gorillas are really gnarly. It reminds me of a movie I loved to watch when I was younger. I also love how this looks like a painting, but its a photograph. I think the only rule of photography evident is framing. Im not sure if thats correct or not. Im assuming the wildlife/forrest is surrounding the Gorilla. He uses a Pentax 67ll. Nick Brandt took the photos because the world is under terrible threat. He believes every human or nonhuman has the right to live, and he feels that every living thing is equal. He wants to appreciate the animals and their beauty before they are gone. People take pictures of themselves and other unimportant things, but they won't focus on Animals. "Brandt fell in love with the animals and land of East Africa".
