Thank you for reminding me about him. I enjoy his work also.

I would suggest that you create a different comment for each photographer that you mention instead of listing a bunch. People will tend to read the one photographer comments more than a whole list.

I will add some if this gets going, but I'd like to leave it open for now.

Ken, he does a lot of street portraits.

Graham Smith

He has an ability to find the quaintest subjects to photograph and the ability to first of all take great shots, but also has a knack with PP to refine them.

Pale Pictures (Russ Elkins)

I am a fan of B&W, and no one does better street portraiture than Russ.

Bobby Deal

His knowledge of lighting technique is superb. I've been following the People Photography section and his and Russ Elkins discussions in that section are great for those who do that kind of work. (I find shooting people to be the hardest type of photography. I can't even take decent photos of my grandkids.)

Kevin Fairley

He appears to be the most interesting photographer in the world. LOL

There are many others on this forum, who I admire for various reasons other than their camera work and others I like for their knowledge, folks who are just great at one thing or another and helpful to those of us who would like to take some good pictures once in a while.

For my viewing pleasure Conkerwood's work has impressed me a great deal. He also has been very helpful in his critiquing of others work.

Russ Elkins (PalePictures) shoots what I want to shoot when I grow up!

And I've gotta give props to Douglass Moody (Nikonian72) because his work and his presence on this forum have set me on my present course of learning how to control light and how to get real close.

Nightski

Douglass is very helpful and he certainly knows his stuff! Thanks for commenting, mechengvic. :-)

At the risk of pushing the parameters of this thread, I am going to assume that the list can include anyone who is listed as a member and not banned and/or suspended, even though he/she may not have been active recently.

Under that assumption, I would like to add two other names, Roger Hicks, who has not posted to the forum on over a year, and Marty Saccone, whose posts are more recent but are sporadic. Of course, both are professionals and both are supported in their efforts by incredibly talented spouses (perhaps the plural of "spouse" should be "spice" ), but neither factor makes them any less talented than they are.

Gotta give mention to Stash and Perelliphoto and Greymule and Travesty, but by mentioning anyone, I am sure I am slighting so many others that make me say "WOW" on a regular basis. Way too hard to answer.

Mine too. Here are a couple of his shots. The first one is one of his best ones, the second one is my favorite.

The first one hurt my eyes. Might be a problem with my eyes.

Don't forget nakkh, he has had some interesting images recently.
