Your favorite photographers?

Post by jimsiff » September 25th, 2008, 10:34 am

I really admire great wilderness / nature photography... but I can't shoot it to save my life. :roll:

What are some of your all time favorite nature photographers? Ansel Adams is a classic. I love Ray Atkeson for his local connections, winter imagery, and depiction of mid-20th century skiing and backcountry touring. I also love the vibrant images of Galen Rowell, Marc Adamus, and Michael Anderson.

We've got some great local photographers here on PH as well.

Steve Terrill is probably my favorite established photographer in the area, and Marc Adamus is a truly a remarkable up-and-coming talent - way out front of other emerging photographers in the PNW, and quickly overtaking the old pros!

Ansel adams of course, Galen Rowell, John Shaw, George Lepp, David Middleton are just a few. Locally Ray Atkeson and Steve Terrill both come to mind.

I'll echo Ansel Adams, also Clark Kinsey, John Shaw, George Lepp, Art Wolf and Jim Griggs.
