Edward Weston is an American who is dubbed as one of the innovative and the influential photographers in the 20th Century. His work has explored in a different subjects including landscape, still life, portraits and quirky themes.
Edward uses visual elements such as such lines and distinctive forms in his vegetables series photography. That is one of the style that he uses in his famous and iconic photographs which he manages to see the beauty of the vegetables.
I see him playing with the color elements of monochrome to create a mysterious and peculiar feeling. Like for an example, his well-known 'Pepper no.30 ' photograph, one would not know it was a picture of that certain vegetable unless it is looked upon closer. It's intriguing how he is able to make something a household name like our ingredient into something extraordinary.
