Tony Ray-Jones
Tony Ray-Jones, an outstanding British photographer who inspired many young photographers to
see and experience something called personal expression and commercial success
...
He died at the young age
...


In my opinion the primary aim of this book is to provide a new opportunity to examine the history
and life of a photographer, as well as his thoughts and opinions about photography
...
Tony’s point
of view exerted an enormous influence out the development of British documentary art
photography from the 1970s through the present
...
The book of Ray-Jones states and proves that he was pushing himself hard to
achieve goals and to reach enormous applause for creating a history of British post-war life
...
Tony Ray-Jones also stated that his aim as a
photographer was to capture the specific aura, the nostalgic potential and surreal humour in
ordinary situations
...
Even if
he did, they usually consisted of the place, and sometimes the event, where pictures were made
...
He was highly concerned with the quality of his prints and the layout of his work,
as he wanted to convey the full power of the images
...
Many people nowadays recall Tony as an influential British post-war
photographer, best remembered for his light hearted, quirky black and white images of the English
social landscape
...
There are people involved on most of the pictures which can state that he
tried to show the sadness and the humour in a gentle madness that prevails in people
...


Tony was a great pre-visionist
...
His notebooks were full of plans, lists and ideas for pictures in certain locations, with
desirable characters and elements described in advance
...
His genius was in recognising likely scenes
and capturing the moment when the ‘right’ juxtapositions took place
