every time i look at his, picture i notice something new about them. like im looking at them for the first time. like i am the first person to look at them and feel what i feel about them. i carnt describe it in words, but there are very few photographers that are able to achieve it, but its the fact that he dosent just do this, he dose it in his own style and his own unique way.. somthing i can aspire too..
theres an easy confidence to the subject that can be pick up clearly, even if you didn't know that this one his greatest traits, and not only can it be seen in his face but in his hands and the way he is sat. his suit also shouts sophistication. all these things and more are emphasised by Penn in this masterful photo
huge influence on me and Penn's work makes photography exciting for me
