I was looking at photographer's and their work so i could get ideas and i came across Peter Gasser he is a contemporary photographer. I was looking at his photos and they really caught my eye and my attention as to "why?" and "what inspired him to take these pictures." Peter says that "in a photograph where you have established a personal connection between yourself and the object photographed you can generate something that cannot be expressed in any other way." Peter makes prints that can exactly capture what his mind's eye was seeing at the moment of exposure. His passion for landscape photography made him turn to the great American masters for inspiration. Gasser studies the nature and how it is an intimate reflection of the visible world. He has written many books about his journeys along the way and explains what he was inspired by. He has beenall over the world taking pictures of different cultures, but mainly african american tribes. Peter has been to Egypt, Iceland, Morocco, Venezia and many different African Tribes. Most of his work is in Black and White, but there are a few in color. His picture are real jaw dropping and they can say so many things. You can leave asking so many questions.
"A photograph is a secret about a secret - the more you tell the less you know."
