I was pondering the question thinking after reading the reponses (including my own) that maybe the question the OP asked could have been who is the most helpful, I found that the list I have in my head is the same for both questions.
Yeah, and then who is the funniest, the nastiest, who has the best avatar, who asks the most stupid questions,etc. Junior high yearbooks do this type of thing. I'd like to avoid voting on popularity-type topics. But that's just me.

I wish I was, I know I'm not and I really don't care much, but for sure there are excellent photographers in this bunch, who are willing to share good help to those who need it. In the meantime, I just enjoy the whole experience. Thanks

If I spent half the time on Photography as I do on woodworking, I may be a little bet better.

Another one who comes to mind is Alaskan. He has taken shots that make me forget to read on.
I'm with Tripsy. Alaskan has a great eye

Why was this question asked? What is/was the standards that anyone is judging by?
This board has a lot of very beneficial questions and information and some not so. I normally don't respond to many questions but this one just couldn't pass. Is popularity and the amount of responses given to this board what makes a good photographer in your opinion?
What does answering questions have to do with being a good photographer unless you are judging involvement in a board as part of the measurement.
I agree with the person who said that a question such as this really doesn't belong and should not be asked. Why not just go to your social media site if you need a personal boost in standing?

Rather than names, maybe you should ask followers of your thread to post their ONE best shot. That way, YOU get to decide who has the stuff that interests you. Beauty (and best) will always be in the eyes of the beholder. There's a huge difference in a great portrait shot vs. a landscape shot. When I see something exceptional I like to ask questions of the photographer as to how s/he did it.

I think I am squarely in the middle. There are some photographers here that put me to shame.
Naming who I think is the best serves no purpose but to hurt feelings and start debates so I will pass on that question.

No, I am not one them. There several that I listen to and practice what they say. There are many who only provide one biased point, instead of listening and learning.

Graham Nash is also a extremely knowledgeable person on printing (fine art printing) in addition to being a excellent photographer for the type of images I like. I first heard him speak at a photo/printing seminar about 20 years ago and again a year or so ago. In addition to his many other talents he is also a very kind person if you know anything about him.

Don't leave out MT Shooter. He needs the money for more glass, so no check is necessary.

No, that's why they make Sony and Pentax and Olympus cameras (and a few others as well).
