Early influences, Joel Meyerowitz




Before I started taking my landscape work seriously I was heavily influenced by two key photographers (to some this may be quite obvious). Richard Misrach and Joel Meyerowitz where to me the pinnacle of modern landscape photography, even more than Stephen Shore who I never really understood until later on..
What fascinated me most was the quality of light in there pictures. This was something I had never really seen before living in the UK. Meyerowitz was my first inspiration and Cape Light remains my favorite collection by the Artist.
