Africa and abandoned theme parks

1. This article is about a photographer, Nick Brandt, going to Africa to take pictures. He's passionate about animals in their state of being and is doesn't like how all the animals in Africa are dying off. He takes pictures of those animals to try to stop or make an impact on not killing off the East African Wildlife.

This is a picture of a mother Lion holding her cub in her mouth with the cub just hanging there. This picture does not have any merges and he used the simplicity rule. The simplicity rule is focusing on the subject and making the picture simple. He used this because the background is plain with the sky and the dead trees and rocks in the back so nothing catches your eye away form the mom and cub. 

3. Nick Brandt uses a medium-format black and white film without telephoto or zoom lenses. This is important because those type of lenses zoom in on the subject and makes you feel like you're close to the animal. Other  photographers use those, but not him.
4. He takes these pictures because he's obsessed with animals and he hopes that they'll memorialize the vanishing or killing off East African Wildlife.
"There is something profoundly iconic, mythological even, about the animals of East and southern Africa. There is also something deeply, emotionally stirring and affecting about the plains of Africa—those vast, green rolling plains punctuated by graphically perfect acacia trees under the huge skies." -Nick Brandt 

1. Out of all the theme parks, I want to go to the Koka Family Land, Shiga, Japan. I want to go there because nature is staring to take over the theme park because it has been abandoned. Those would be some interesting pictures because there will be a lot of vines on rides and moldy areas of the theme park.

3. 5 other unusual places photographers would like taking pictures would be abandoned buildings, alley ways, schools, gardens and skating rinks.

It would be fun to shoot in abandoned buildings because there are rooms that are filled with other peoples memories and stuff so you can kind of see what kind of building it was. Its like a big adventure. I would take pictures of old lights and broken windows and if the building is covered by nature I would take pictures of that.
