Review of Edward Burtynsky

I found this photographer to be rather boring.... well some of it anyway. I think he had a great cause for taking his images, but them themselves were rather bland and boring. Again, this was just most of them. There were some good ones for example the portrait of the woman standing out in-front of her house with all the recyclable goods. That photograph showed the extreme desperate emotion which really interested me. And again, it's not that his photographs were not "good," they just did not appeal to my way of photography. I do however appreciate his work because he is trying to get a point across to those of us who do not understand what terrible things are going on in this world.
