Motivation
Trent Parke shot sports for ten years- a powerful encouragement as I prepare for my next high school volleyball game.
Influence
© Mikhael Subotzky
It would be more accurate to call Subotzky a major influence, his use of multiple formats to effectively tell a story, with each format still bearing his compositional signature, his time spent on a single theme, and most importantly, his desire to tell a story that is near his home. I will never understand why young photographers feel the need to travel the world to create work when they can find powerful stories near their own homes, perhaps it's because contest judges get boners for pictures from third world countries, I can't be sure, but Subotzky is an example of how powerful work can be made at home.
