favorite photos of famous photographer: carol guzy


My favorite photographer is Carol Guzy. She always wanted to be an artist but she was not supported by her working-class family in the beginning. She started going to nursing school but she found out that it was not her way. After he friends gave her a camera, she  took photography course and fell in love with it. Her photographs have won three Pulitzer Prizes and three Photography of the year awards in National annual contest. 

I think her style is about photography unfortunate people. I like her work because she has a great communication herself and her subject. Moreover, she can also transfer her message to me clearly through her photographs.

1st photo: I almost cry with the boy seeing this photo. I believe this boy come from Heiti under the turmoil and repression period. His eyes are so sad, even without those tears, i can see through the feeling of him. This photographs is so powerful and sad.

2nd photo: I like that i can really see the joyfulness of this couple. They are celebrating the fall of communism. The gesture and facial expression is 'clearly' expressed. In a way, i can't really see there face, but i think i can see the smile through their eyes. 

3rd photo: I like this photo because I can see the intensity and the resolution all in one one photo. The scene of the photo and the boy expression show how bad the situation is. However, those two hands that are touched tightly show some power of strong will of solving the problem. love it
