Edward Burtynsky : Manufactured Landscapes
2005 TED Prize winner, Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky presents, in this video, his highly acclaimed body of work "Manufactured Landscapes".
Ed Burtynsky has always been drawn to the landscape and specifically man's impact on it and how humans mold and alter the landscape, often to detrimental long term effect, in order that we can continue to live and serve our consumerism lifestyle. His subject matter stretches from mines to oil wells to the industrial revolution in China.
Burtynsky photographs these scenes with immaculate detail using a large format camera in order to present to us all the detail and scale of these places.
Our way of life comes at a price and Edward Burtynsky's goal is to have us stop and look and think about the change we make to our landscape through the decisions we make daily.
Accepting his 2005 TED Prize, photographer Edward Burtynsky makes a wish: that his images help persuade millions to join a global conversation on sustainability.

Photographing a New City
As I write this post, I am venturing in the beautiful city of Budapest Hungary. This old historic city has so much to offer with the culture, the people and the mystique of a place so vastly different from the one I live in. The textures, colors, the varied terrain and spendid architecture allow so many incredible stimuli for pictures. I just keep shooting and the pleasure is surreal.
It is so important as an artist to stay inspired. One of the greatest skills an artist can have, I believe, is the ability to do this. Travelling is a good way to find the "new", always so rewarding for the eyes.
Alex Webb, a great Magnum photographer, has produced a wonderful set of images of the city of Istanbul and displays them in a video presentation attached here. I hope you enjoy this interpretation as much as I have. This video comes to us via Youtube.

Magnum Photo Agency
Some of the richest photography I thoroughly enjoy is photo-journalistic photography, made by that special breed of photographer who travels the globe covering news surrounding world issues, seeking out the truth and capturing some remarkable images. These images are so vitally important in raising awareness for the social and political issues that plague mankind.
Some of the most talented photographers working today are members of the legendary photo agency "Magnum".
Magnum Photos is an international photographic cooperative owned by its photographer-members, with offices located in New York, Paris, London and Tokyo. According to co-founder Henri Cartier-Bresson, "Magnum is a community of thought, a shared human quality, a curiosity about what is going on in the world, a respect for what is going on and a desire to transcribe it visually."
War photographers Robert Capa, David "Chim" Seymour, William Vandivert, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and George Rodger founded Magnum in 1947, responding to their World War II experiences. Magnum is one of the first photographic cooperatives, owned and administered entirely by members. The staff serve a support role for the photographers who retain all copyrights to their own work.
The Magnum cooperative has included photojournalists from across the world and has covered many historical events of the 20th century. The cooperative's archive includes photographs depicting family life, drugs, religion, war, poverty, famine, crime, government and celebrities.
The video attached here is a collective of just a small fraction of eye opening visuals that were created through Magnum.
