鼓舞人心的摄影师:Don McCullin

在大学三年的第二年,我开始对摄影产生兴趣,在那里我从事互动媒体工作。我在工作中使用了很多照片,并立即被吸引住了。这段时间我去了一趟帝国战争博物馆在索尔福德,离我的家乡沃灵顿不远。当时他们举办了一场展览,展示了 Don McCullin 在战地摄影师时代的作品,这确实激发了我对摄影的兴趣。

如果有一位摄影师能让我产生兴趣,我不得不说是 Don McCullin。

McCullin 主要以他的战争摄影而闻名,尤其是在越南和北爱尔兰冲突中。不过,他的工作并不仅限于战争摄影,他还在英国做过新闻摄影,并曾担任《星期日泰晤士报》杂志的驻外记者,走遍了包括但不限于非洲艾滋病流行病的受害者.

你可能也知道他是被他的相机拯救的摄影师,1968 年在柬埔寨,他的尼康 F 拿着专为他准备的 AK-47 子弹。摄像机拍得不太好,但重要的是他还活着。

我生命中过去 50 年的大部分时间都浪费在拍摄战争上,我做了什么好事?

正如您所料,拍摄如此多的冲突并看到如此多的冲突会造成损失。 McCullin 现在主要拍摄风景,并在接受 Alfred Dunhill 采访时谈到他因所见所闻而感到困扰。面试非常艰难,真的让你思考这样一份工作对你的想法的影响。

他现在拍摄的风景反映了这一点,它们非常黑暗、严峻,而且非常喜怒无常。
