Date of Birth: 1908
Date of Death: 1976
Minor was an American photographer born in Minneapolis Minnesota. He’s best know for taking pictures of mundane objects, but making them good/special with the light that it’s taken under.
White was a closeted bisexual man and felt tormented through much of his life by his then socially-unacceptable feelings for young men. Much of this erotic turmoil expressed itself in his post-war subject matter and style, and in his spiritual search for peace and simplicity. Several of his photographs of male nudes are considered to be the masterworks of the genre, but were only published in 1989.
This picture is called Rochester. Evidently taken in Rochester… I rate this picture a 10/10. I really like the texture and the shadows and light in the image. Also, I like how the pipes look like a tree.
