   Elliot Landy is best known for his photos of professional musicians. He was the official photographer of Woodstock. Some of his photos were infrared or pixelated, perhaps an homage to the psychadelic era of the 60s and 70s. Most of his photos are relatively normal, except for the fact that they're infrared. It is normal subject matter, but seems strange because the colors are not as they should be. I like how Landy takes something so commonplace, but gives his own twist to the photos. It makes you take more time to look at them than if they were normal, visible light photos. I don't want to do exactly what Landy has done, but he has definitely been an influence to me. I can use night vision or infrared on something without it being army combat or police hunting criminals.
