ROBERT CAPA

This week we had to do a presentation about some different famous photographers, and my classmate, Irati, and I spoke about Robert Capa. First of all we talked a little bit about his biography, then we did an explanation of 5 of his photos and to finish we showed 5 photos that we took inspired by him. I loved doing this presentation about him because he was a war photographer and his photos transmit a lot of feelings. However, taking photos inspired by him was a very difficult job because, as I have already told you, he was a war photographer so we couldn't take photos like his. But we did our best In his picture we can see children playing in the snow during the Second Sino-Japanese War. Here children were playing without thinking that their society was going through a war. Inspired by his photo, we decided to take a similar picture, but in our society. In our picture we can see that children are playing also without preoccupation.
