Africa and Mural project preview

This is my favorite photo of Nick Brandt because, the way he took this picture is amazing. I specially love the way the wind blowing on his fur. In this picture the photographer is using simplicity as one of the rules, because he only focuses on the lion.

Nick Brandt-
What kind of camera did he use? He used a Pentax 6711
What is his reason for taking the photos? for a trilogy of books to memorialize the vanishing natural grandeur of east africa.
What is his hope by taking these types of photos? his hopes were to take photos to record visually poetic last testament to the wild animals.
what he said about the pictures were; " you wouldn't take a portrait of a human being from a hundred feet away and expect to capture their spirit; you'd move in close."

next;
1. What theme that we could take here at school could we do a series of these panels to place around the school?  i think we should make a funny theme, so it can make people laugh and make peoples day more better just by looking at the mural.
2. Should we use phones only, or should we open it up to our regular cameras for those people that don't have camera phones? i think we should use our regular camera phones, because maybe other people don't have phones.
3. Where would you want to put the mural on campus? I would want the mural on the front of the school.
