As millions buy and use digital cameras, it is evident that many are becoming very interested in photography. And while we find plenty of subjects to take pictures of only a few individuals usually have the talent to truly take photographs that capture the essence and interest of subject time and time again. One of the most interesting and acclaimed photographers of the 20th century is Diane Arbus.
Diane Arbus is considered to be one of the great photographers of the 20th century. Her skill and intellect captured interesting people and gave us glimpses into their personalities as many of us never experienced before. While Diane Arbus’s photographs became popular after her untimely death (brought on by suicide as she suffered from depression), her incredible work was celebrated the by public and her photos till this day are still appreciated as being both beautiful, yet disturbing. Diane Arbus was a master at finding individuals that were amusing, but bordering on the bizarre and disturbing- capturing the essence of her subjects.
The Smithsonian Magazine is also a fan of Diane Arbus and has a fascinating article on this great photographer of the 20th century.
