Review on Steven Roberts

My review on Steven Roberts

Today i  have been looking at Objective and Topographic Photography, And have chosen to write a review on the British Contemporary Photographer Simon Roberts. I really enjoyed looking at Simon Roberts photography especially his 'We English' work. I found i have been to many of the places he has photographed so i feel i have a connection towards them and can understand then more. I like the fact that he doesn't choose what people are in the images, that it's just people going on with there everyday life.

you witness people living, you see them carrying out there daily routines, family's, children playing, couple's and pets. I feel they make a really bold statement, that you can also relate to you think about when you've been there and what you did etc... You start to wonder why there there, looking at each individual person, seeing what there wearing, thinking about who they are, also what they are thinking about and how there feeling what mood there in.

I think you can really connect to Simon Robert's images and gain emotions towards them, they leave you thinking and captivated in the moment. Overall i think he is a very talented photographer in the way he thinks and in the way he produces his images.
