His crystal clear and colorful compositions from all over the globe are instantly recognizable and some of them are pierced in our Western minds. McCurry describes his own work as following: “Most of my images are grounded in people. I look for the unguarded moment, the essential soul peeking out, experience etched on a personʼs face. I try to convey what it is like to be that person.” His intense use of color, the ability to capture the natural light and the human subject at the decisive moment and his compositions, characterize his photographic style. Steve McCurry is considered as being one of the most renowned contemporary photojournalists and on his behalf countless exhibitions and publications are conducted worldwide.
