Famous Photographer: Art Wolfe

  Could you image traveling the world to do nothing but take pictures? Art Wolfe a famous wildlife and landscape photography took his life in a different direction than most people; he travels from continent to continent taking pictures! I chose to write my paper on Art Wolfe because he interested me the most, one type of photography that has always been my favorite it wildlife photography.

    Wolfe was awarded Photography of the year in 1996; in 1998 he was awarded Outstanding Nature Photographer of the Year; and the Alfred Eisenstaedt Magazine Photography Award in April 2000.  Art Wolfe hosted his own show called “Safari”. He’s currently been working as a photographer for 30 years and his passion is what dedicates him to his work.  

  Art was born into a family that had photography in his blood, his father was a Navy-photographer and his mother was a commercial-artist. In the beginning Art Wolfe had always wanted to be a painter, but during his college years he self-taught himself the mechanics of photography.

Art Wolfe is now on the board for the Wildlife Conservation Society, Nature's Best Foundation, and the North American Nature Photographers Association.

Reflection of Photography

  So far this year in photography I learned a lot that I never about before. I learned about the rule of thirds and how it is more appealing to the eye to have a picture positioned in one section of the photograph.  I learned that rule of thirds is when u divide a picture into 9 equal squares and place the subject in one section of the squares so it draw the attention of whoever looks at it. I also learned that that you can control the amount of light u let into the lens by changing the shutter speed and aperture, also by changing the aperture and f-stop you can make a depth of field photo where the subject is clear and the background is blurry.  Another type of photography that I learned is the freeze frame and motion blur. By changing the shutter speed to a high number like 1/200 u get a freeze frame photo and by slowing down the shutter speed to like 1/8 you get a motion blur picture where you can see the movement happening in the picture.

  Photography class also taught me all about Photoshop. I learned how to change the resolution, color, brightness, contrast, and a lot more! Overall I’ve learned more about photography so far than I ever had and I can’t wait to learn even more!
