O!. Winston Link!.

I've had a life-long interest in trains, particularly of the era and region he photographed(1950s Appalachian mountains) so the subject matter of most of his photos fascinates me!.

On a different level, the way he was able to use flash to light his scenes on such a large scale has been unequaled by anyone else I've ever seen!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

He is Mr!. Nimai Ghosh, who spent his life after one of the World's Best Ten Movie-makers, Mr!. Satyajit Ray, of INDIA!. Now ask me who is Nimai Ghosh!? :-)
I want to remind you, in fact, there can't be "ONE" photographer as THE BEST!. Time changes!. Today's BEST might be BETTER or GOOD only!.
One more thing, when you do ask such question, you must have the knowledge of the 'OTHER' world, got my point!? As you've thrown the question to the WORLD, not in USA or UK----right!? If not, I'm sorry to take part here!.
p!.s!. After posting my answer, I saw a THUMBS DOWN sign! Is it a practice here, isn't it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
