Henry Cartier-Bresson: Known for street photography and photojournalism "We are passive onlookers in a world that moves perpetually. Our only moment of creation is that 1/125th of a second when the shutter clicks, the signal is given, and motion is stopped..."

here's mine: Joel-Peter Witkin: Known for photographing human spectacles including hermaphrodites, dwarfs, amputees, androgynes, carcasses, people with odd physical capabilities & fetishists "When I produce a photograph that totally satisfies, a part of me actually dies. And I think that death is an aspect of myself being burned away or dissolved, because that part of what I had to work out is taken care of."

Ansel Adams: Known for large scale silver gelatin landscapes especially of Yosemite National Park "Sometimes I do get to places just when God's ready to have somebody click the shutter."
Adam's okay, but I like Cartier-Bresson better. Photojournalist...that's what I'm gonna be. |

for me it's a toss up between witkin and uelsmann really. i love them both for different reasons. i've had more experience i guess with the sort of thing witkin photographs though. of course, when i do it, i'm not trying to get some supposedly highly religious meaning across. and i'm not equipped to handle the sort of images uelsmann creates. maybe one day if i become rich and can afford to have a giant darkroom of my own with like 30 enlargers in it i'll be able to give it a try.  |

This brain fusion of ours is really starting to worry me. Remember that other girl who is like a well-baked pie? We have one too! *ponders* |

Well, it was a partial brain fusion at least. Wanna try and guess what color I'm thinking of? |
