Which Direction to Go?

Have been thinking a lot about the direction I want my photography to go. I am now 44years old and running out of time to make the images I want to make in my lifetime. I keep thinking to the photographer I admire most, the man I feel is the greatest living photographer. His work is the work I admire more than any other, I feel he has created the greatest and most important body of photographs of any living photographer, Mr Sebastiao Salgado.

I want to push my work in Mr Salgado's direction, to do it my way but to also create work of substance with a wider range of emotions and impact like Sebastiao Salgado. I need to tell a bigger story with a larger canvas.
