Richard Misrach


After looking at the photos by Richard Misrach, I decided that the Desert Cantos were most interesting.  I like how the wide frame view of the scenic desert presented a wide range of colors and a distant view.  Many have the horizon in the center that gave a view of both the ground and the sky.  His photography style is similar to how I take scenic pictures, with the horizon line and the distant shots.  My favorite photo is the one with the ticket booth in Egypt with a pyramid in on the horizon line.  The focal point to the right of the booth contrasts well with the far shot of the pyramid.  Overall, his photography grabbed my attention and I enjoyed it.
