Bill Brandt is a very diverse photographer, he has explored all the major genres in photography such as landscape, photojournalism, nudes and portraits.
I really enjoy the grittiness of his images, the way he has captured the moment perfectly. I like his documentary style images the most, I find them very honest and it is hard to imagine there is a photographer there at all, it really appears as though we are looking directly into the scene. I also found some of his nude portraits quite surreal. The way he has composed some of them is rather odd but at the same time aesthetically pleasing which I think is a good combination of contrasts.
