edward burtynsky

I like Edwards work because of his use of color and repetition. He also uses leading lines to draw your attention to certain points in the photo, which complement it nicely.
to help the environment try using reusable bags at grocery stores, it reduces a lot of plastic :)

chuck close pictures

I like Chuck Close's work because of the detail and realizm of it.
 He adds a very human factor to all of his photos, they are imperfect and gritty
 but they show the true sides of people, the raw image.
