I really like Diane Arbus!. She would photograph the ordinary and make it look interesting and unusual, but she would also photograph the unusual and make it look normal!.
She had a great eye and an interesting way of looking at the world!.

also look at Dorothea Lange!. Her images during the Great Depression where sensitive and telling!. She captured life during this time that is so telling of what people went through!.

Edward Weston is also wonderful!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I enjoy the spontaneous nature of Ralph Gibson and Scott Cunningham!. But, I really like the well-thought-out, tremendous beauty of Ansel Adam's work!. Why!? Look at "Clearing Winter Storm," and you will have your answer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
