Monday hero: André Kertész

If I had been a photographer, I would have liked to be able to make photographs like these.

These were made by André Kertész (1894-1985), who was born in Budapest and worked in Paris and New York.

I love the high viewpoint Kertész often uses, but I most of all love his use of shadows.

I like to 'ground' the figures in my drawings with a good shadow myself.
