Ken Wyner Journal

Biography:

Ken Wyner got his first camera when he was 12 from his father and sparked his love for photography. He started selling hand tinted black and white prints at the age of 17. Ken later spent 18 months traveling in Afghanistan and England where he took photos that were later shown in a gallery in Washington. After Ken joined a host of infamous artists and then desired to become commercially successful to expand his creative horizons. In 2000 he had his largest exhibit to date consisting of 40 photos from the "Washington Dream" series.


I like this one because of the color palette and it looks busy, like there are multiple lights moving.

I like this one because it looks surreal. I'm not really sure what it is, so it's cool that he made this from a real scene.

I like this one because it reminds me of Washington DC and america and its simplistic in the way that it only really features the American flag in it.
