For the
portraits of the people that are “zoomed out” in reference to focal length, I
believe the artist used his long lens or whichever is the smallest number of mm
on his camera. The larger the aperture
is the shorter the depth of field will be.
For those photographs with a “blurry” background I believe the aperture
if F2 or F4.
Dirk Rees spent
time with tribe members who refer to themselves as “Samburu Warriors”. Rees intends on documenting many indigenous
tribes. He wanted to capture their
semi-nomadic lives and in his words “capture their essence, spirit, and soul.”
These photographs are beautiful. The vibrant colors against the dark rich
colors of the tribesmen’s skin provide a great contrast. I enjoyed viewing the beading as well. Both the photograph taking and the
traditional wardrobe of the Samburu Warriors appears to have been time
consuming and well executed.
