[SinglePic not found]When my passion for photography was in discovery, I spent many weekends at Borders flipping through collections by the photographer’s of old. Two of my favorites have always been Cartier-Bresson and Brassai (those links are image searches on Google so you can get straight to their work). My absolute favorite collection of all is “Brassai: Paris by Night”, a must have for any person who appreciates light, contrast and texture. It still surprises me how much that book evokes from places in me I don’t often pay attention to.
I photographed Dave & Sarah at the Schonbrunn Palace in Vienna. I was looking forward to the lighting and mood it has at night. The schedule didn’t allow, but I did get one photo that reminds me (vaguely, as my talent pales in comparison) a bit of something one of the photographers of old might have taken as a couple strolled through the city.
Check out those collections…I hope you enjoy them as much as I have!!
