Garry Winogrand

This short video highlights some of Garry Winogrand's work, many of his pictures are iconic and easily recognisable, by photographing everyday things around him he has created an historical record of life in America.  It is clear from his work that he was fascinated by people and their actions and reactions, knew his equipment thoroughly and was quick and comfortable when taking shots.  He also had a good eye, knowing instinctively what would make a shot work, was comfortable with composition and understood how light would influence how a shot was viewed.
