Paul Till took the photo that Bob chose for the Blood on the Tracks album cover. He would sneak his camera into concerts and use solarization on his b&w film then used photo dyes to DIY shenanigans that one would typically do with photoshop nowadays. The album cover really looks like a painting, it's very surreal.

I really love how Henry captures different aspects of nature throughout different times of the day as well as weather conditions. I find it interesting how a majority of his pictures contain a red glow close to the camera that gradually fades into the nature.

Johann is a 20 year old photographer based in Germany. I find his work motivating and inspiration because like him, I have a deep and profound love for nature. He does a lot of photography of animals, and like him that is also my favorite subject to photograph. It is really cool and inspiring to me to find a person the same age as myself that shares the same passions and loves for nature and photography.

Garry Winogrand was an American street photographer mostly known for his candid shots. Through his work, he shed light on social issues and American culture. I love how he was able to find order and humor in some chaotic environments as well as how he left his photos mostly unedited.

"I photograph to see what the world looks like in photographs."
Garry Winogrand

Garry Winogrand was born in New York, where he lived and worked during much of his life. Winogrand photographed the visual cacophony of city streets, people, rodeos, airports and animals in zoos. These subjects are among his most exalted and influential work.

Winogrand was the recipient of numerous grants, including several Guggenheim Fellowships and a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship. His work has been the subject of many museum and gallery exhibitions, and was included in the 1967 "New Documents" exhibition, curated by John Szarkowski at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

In 2013 the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art mounted a major retrospective exhibition including over 160 of Winogrand's photographs. The exhibition traveled to venues including the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Jeu de Paume, Paris, France; Fundacíon MAPFRE, Madrid, Spain.

"My only interest in photographing is photography."
Garry Winogrand

Many monographs of Winogrand's work have been published, including The Man in the Crowd: The Uneasy Streets of Garry Winogrand, The Animals, Women are Beautiful, Arrivals and Departures, Winogrand: Figments from the Real World, and Garry Winogrand, a catalogue accompanying the retrospective exhibition.

Benjamin is a lens-based artist born in Santiago, Chile. His approach to his work is in producing minimalistic surreal landscapes using photography. I am drawn to nature, landscape photography, and the beauty of capturing the world as it is. I appreciate his work, specifically what is shown as it captures the beauty and simplicity of Chile. His picture captures the dunes at different parts of the day. Seeing how time and light can alter your perspective of the same landscape is awing.

Pam Moxley is a self taught artist who had explored a wide range of photography including black and white and mixed media photography. A lot of her work is based on reflecting childhood, her own and her

children’s. I saw her artwork in a n airport and loved the vintage look of her photographs and seeing the camera in the photo. When looking into her more, I fell in love with her use of mixed media and color.

“I have always felt that looking through the lens of a camera is much like looking at life from the perspective of a child. The magnificence of life is fresh and waiting to be discovered. I see things when I photograph that I would never see without a camera in my hands. Photography graces me with the momentary freedom to leave the responsibilities of life behind, and view the majesty of life as though I am, again, six years old.” Pam Moxley, a self-taught Artist, has spent the last twenty one years pursuing her fascination with photography and mixed media. She is best known for her taut black and white and sepia-toned images which are simple in composition yet complex in theme. Her works are inspired by her own childhood and watching the growth of her four children. Each of her works are created to remind the viewer of their own time as a child, when they embraced life with an unbridled moxie. mox•ie [ móksee ] Definition: courage combined with inventiveness (slang) Once she is finished with the photographic component, Pam continues to create through several other mediums. Her mixed media works are individually created with multiple layers. She starts by painting a dimensional board with several layers and textures of paint. She then uses an image transfer process that she has developed to add the photograph to the board. Pam finishes each of the works with a poured layer of high gloss resin. The combination of these techniques brings each of these individual works of art to life. Mixing the distress of the transfers with the brilliance of the resin creates a beautiful mix of nostalgia and high concept polish. Pam’s work is held in many private and public collections throughout the United States including the Pinnacle Bank Collection, City of Atlanta collection, the APG collector’s portfolio, Blackbird Technologies, MOCA GA, and the Southeast Museum of Photography. Pam’s work has also been featured in films and national magazines, including Decor and Traditional Home.

I have long admired Victoria Sambunaris’s work, and felt she might be a kindred spirit in her long traverses of the American landscape. Her work tackles the difficult task of explaining the vastness and uniqueness of the American west, in its complicated mix of beauty, exploitation, preservation, respect, and challenge.

Seydou Keïta is a photographer from Mali who began work as a freelance portrait photographer but became well-known and sought after in his community (and later his country) for his artistic eye and ability to make his subjects look dignified and “with it” (he provided props like telephones and swanky clothing/accessories). I really enjoy the use of pattern in his work and I think the portraits capture a lot of character in the people he photographed despite being clearly posed.

René Maltête was a French photographer from the 1950's and 60's. His work is well known for shining a light on the common humor of everyday life. I think he is an incredible example of excellent visual story telling, I am often impressed with how much story I can get out of his photos without any words.

Joseph Koudelka was an award winning photographer who was born during WW2 and achived success photographing the Soviet invasion of Prauge in 1968. He started his career earlier in the 60s as a part time Photographer capturing the lives of the Roma People. I enjoy his portarit photography and the way he chooses odd and eccentric compositions to dramitisizwe the lives of the people in his photos. He chooses to photograph momnets of absurdity and has a taste for subverting modern things.

By Doug Rickard, ASX, April 2010

As the summer night falls and the crickets chirp, the sky slightly aglow from the street lamps, the stillness comes. And the stillness of the summer dark lays over the land like a warm blanket surrounding a child and it becomes a paradox. The blanket gives the impression of security as you button up inside your little American house, yet the feeling of the falling darkness brings tension and pulls at the blanket, near the edges, reminding you of the things that make children hide under the covers at night.

This feeling of delicacy and menace, warm air and wonder and the distant sound coming of far off imaginary thunder. The night breeze flows through your hair as darkness comes toward you. You put away the toys on the lawn and lock up all of the doors. These are feelings that are buried deep inside all of us, the child in us. In our heads are vaults of long ago memories and the "magic" of the child. But now as a grown up, the magic is mixed with the dominating awareness of the "lion" and the invading anxieties of the world now seen through eyes of the adult.

In Summer Nights Walking, Robert Adams taps fiercely into our feelings and memories and he does it with his deft and recognizable, delicate touch. The book layout is a visual tour from the streets of the Longmont, Colorado suburbs to the top of the surrounding mountains, the views looking into windows and down into the weeds, into car headlights and far above the glowing lights of a new frontier town way off down below. Adams presence disappears from the scene and all one can feel is alone, a voyeur view into your own walk and into the things of the night. This walk is not only Adams walk but yours, in your minds eye. From dusk to the dark of night we are taken and the shadows and beauty become one with the stillness.

Robert Adams refers to a William Blake prayer that deftly describes this paradox...

"The splendor of the Creation but also the reality of the Wolf and the Lion."

Yes, the beauty is undeniable and the danger in the shadows and the anxiety of the dark, also undeniable. Our world is precious, filled with awe and so much wonder yet menace abounds, and in the night time there sometimes comes murder and thunder...

Human existence in shadows and light, our joy and our fear, underneath at the core.

A square little gem.

Summer Nights, Walking.

Michael Wolf is known for his large-format architectural photos of Chicago and primarily of Hong Kong, where he has been living for more than 15 years.

His latest pictures have also been created in a big city: Tokyo. But this time Tokyo's architecture is not the topic. Michael Wolf's Tokyo Compression focuses on the craziness of Tokyo's underground system. For his shots he has chosen a location which relentlessly provides his camera with new pictures minute by minute.

Every day thousands and thousands of people enter this subsurface hell for two or more hours, constrained between glass, steel and other people who roll to their place of work and back home beneath the city. In Michael Wolf's pictures we look into countless human faces, all trying to sustain this evident madness in their own way.

Horacio Coppola is an Argentine photographer well known for his urban documentary photos. Coppola was trained at the Bauhaus in Germany, where he experimented with light and shape. After fascism rose in Germany and Coppola fled, the city council of Buenos Aires hired him to document the process of urban modernization. This series, completed in the late 30s, utilized unconventional angles to capture the presence of the city. His photos highlighted social disparities in the inter-war period in Argentina.

Josef Koudelka, born in Moravia, made his first photographs while a student in the 1950s. About the same time that he started his career as an aeronautical engineer in 1961 he also began photographing Gypsies in Czechoslovakia and theater in Prague. He turned full-time to photography in 1967.

The following year, Koudelka photographed the Soviet invasion of Prague, publishing his photographs under the initials P. P. (Prague Photographer) for fear of reprisal to him and his family. In 1969, he was anonymously awarded the Overseas Press Club's Robert Capa Gold Medal for those photographs.

Koudelka left Czechoslovakia for political asylum in 1970 and shortly thereafter joined Magnum Photos. In 1975, he brought out his first book Gypsies, and in 1988, Exiles. Since 1986, he has worked with a panoramic camera and issued a compilation of these photographs in his book Chaos in 1999. Koudelka has had more than a dozen books of his work published, including Invasion Prague 68 (2008), and, most recently, La Fabrique d'Exils (2017).

He has won significant awards such as the Prix Nadar (1978), a Grand Prix National de la Photographie (1989), a Grand Prix Cartier-Bresson (1991), and the Hasselblad Foundation International Award in Photography (1992).

Significant exhibitions of his work have been held at the Museum of Modern Art and the International Center of Photography, New York; the Hayward Gallery, London; the Stedelijk Museum of Modern Art, Amsterdam; the Institute of Chicago; the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles; the Palais de Tokyo, Paris; and the Pompidou Centre in Paris.
