Been studying Salgado's work the last few weeks, there is so much humanity in his photographs. You can feel the hearts and souls of the people he has photographed. Went through the books "Africa" and "Sahel: The End of the Road", tonight I am paging through the book "Workers".
Looking at his work you see beauty, pain, suffering, strength, weakness, hope, determination, all the good and bad that is mankind. To capture all of this with a camera is something else, hard to believe he did it all. A part of his work that does not enough credit is his landscape work, often the landscape photographs are very strong and moving and give overall balance and strength to his books.
The greatest photographer alive.
