| This photo, taken by Nick Brant, shows a buffalo, caked in dirt and mud, lowering its head slightly, showing off it's huge, thick horns. This photo caught my attention because of how focused it is and because of the good use of simplicity. The background is almost blank and a light gray, without any background distractions the dark buffalo pops out and catches your attention. |
He doesn't use zoom lenses and says that it helps him get the character and personality of the animals he photographs. He wishes to capture the majesty of these animals before they disappear forever. Another of his goals is to show the animal's beauty and to help raise awareness for their struggle to endure.
"I was trying to record a last testament to this Eden, this paradise. As part of that, I was hoping to show the animals' majesty. But obviously, that's changed."
-Nick Brandt
