Masters of Photography

Abelardo Morell, St. Louis View, Looking East, in Building Under Construction, 1999


In class today, we discussed the Masters of Photography research project. This is a four-part assignment that will be ongoing from now until late May/early June. Make sure that you choose a master photographer and sign up for that photographer on the list in class. Keep an eye on our due dates!

Information about the project (including the slideshow with example photographs as well as the project outline) can be found at the top of the blog, when you click on "Masters."
