I have decided to do my spot the difference image onYousef Karsh. He is a very famous portrait photographer, probably most famous for his image of Winston Churchill. He was born in 1908 to Armenian parents. At 16 he was sent to live in Canada, with his Uncle, a photographer. His Uncle saw potential in him, and arranged an apprentice job for him in America. Eager to make his make he returned to Canada and set up his own studio near the Canadian government. Because of this the Prime Minister discovered Karsh, and he soon became a very well know celebrity and government photographer. His style appears to be clear portraits in black and white, with a wide range of tone but a lot of contrast still. He is a master of studio lighting, and illuminates everything perfectly.
