Kerry Goodman Post #7

Peter Edel




1. Peter Edel is a journalist for a Turkish Newspaper. During a time he spent two years at the Salt Lakes. During his time there Edel captured these photographs that are oddly appealing for a almost desert like landscape. Unintentionally Edel captured the beauty and vastness of nature itself.

2. With a very minimalist style he captured the terrain of the Salt Lakes. All of his photos shoot off into the distance showing just how expansive the terrain is. Edel never aimed for artistic merrits on his photographs, but they tend to hold a very artsy style that most photographers lack. Instead of filling up the image with nature he only gives it half the image size, while the rest throws you to the spacious area.

3. I find his photographs very awww inspiring to look at. The plains that he takes on really capture the beauty of nature, while at the same time, reminding you how vast the planet we live on really is. How landscapes can go on forever and it can seem almost endless. Edel captured some much attention with such little detail. Edel proved that minimalist photos can be just as appealing as vibrant and occupied photographs.
