As I surf the Internet quite a lot looking for inspiration and I come across old and new photographers, I thought I would open a thread where I could put them all and it might serve to somebody else too! :)

 

I will update it from time to time! :)

I forgot one of my favourite photographers of all times!

Philip Lorca Dicorcia

http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art/features/still-life-philip-lorca-dicorcias-breathtaking-and-outlandish-fashion-photography-for-w-magazine-2229656.html#gallery

 

His series called "Hustlers" is out of this world and the book is a really really good edition :)

 

And of course:

Bill, the very first time I went to MOMA there was a Helen Levitt exhibition and I was amazed by it!

 

Thanks for posting those three old ones! :)

 

Marcus, I knew Alex Webb, I didn't know William Eggleston and I'm glad you decided to share his website! He is great! :)

 

Philip Lorca Dicorcia is a character on his own! :)

The second link is a talk that Dicorcia gave in Alcobendas, Spain a while ago.. it is in Spanish but you can listen to Dicorcia in English before the girl translates his words :) Worth watching! :)

 

Thank you!!

Ansel Adams nature photography was something I wanted to duplicate in projects. Having spent a lot of time in the Sierras and Rockies as a boy, I see mountains and forests the way he does, though I certainly don't have anywhere his skill to capture those images.
