Minor White, who had contact with the work of Alfred Stieglitz, was a famous photographer as well. He looked upon the photography as medium of art. In the 60s, his style of photography had become the one of most models the photographers followed. Among most of his photographs, the nature is the theme, such as landscape, snow feature, and rock. He thought that clear and unchanging picture is the way of self-expression. White was a fan of spiritualism; he was interested in psychology which made him believe that the spirit is prior than anything else. From his work, we would see his attitude about art.

Both Stieglitz and White are the painter of art. They devoted most of their lives to intent to “paint” the moment that could move theirselves and others in cameras.

Man Ray, his photographs were basically focus on human body and countenance, and his objective were mostly on female than male. Also, some of his photographs were naked, he tried to specified artistic visions of females. Also, his photographs were absolutely different with Alfred Stieglitz, Stieglitz’s photographs were focusing on scenery, like building and city view. There only few of his photographs were focus on portrait.

Moholo-Nagy’s photographs were usually using simple object or pattern, combine it together, and frame it with different lighting or coloring. His photographs were kind of nonrepresentational, with the special light, color and texture that he created for each photographs, each one of them were special and unique.
After viewing most of Moholo-Nagy and Man Ray’s photographs, I believe all of their photographers are frame with their cameras. They used different techniques, lenses and lighting to create these unique photographs.
