Eddy.

Edward Burtynsky is a photographer who specializes in landscape space. I usually dont find landscape art appealing but there are a few works of art that he has done that I do in fact find intriguing.
For example this piece. I remember watching the video from last semester and he spoke about how this red stream was only about a foot or so wide.. you could jump across it. That was amazing to me. To be able to take an image and transform it.. doing almost nothing. I also like how he takes destruction and makes it beautiful. I like when people make untypical things interesting for all people. It makes me more interested then say, your everyday picture of a hill and some clouds.
