1. Edweard Muybridge (for obvious reasons)
2. Li Wei-- reminds me of Magritte, sans bowler hats
3. Diane Arbus --I like the documentary style
4. Bob Langrish -- one of the best horse photographers
5. Jacques Cousteau (couldn't find pictures I'm sure 100% are by him and don't have my books with me, but here is one of him)
6.
I cannot for the life of me remember who this person was (check back later in case I find out?) but s/he photographed people of different backgrounds with all their belongings outside their homes. Neat project. Peter Menzel,
Material World
7. Takashi Amano -- designs and photographs amazing fishtank landscapes
8. Harry Callahan -- of the take-lots-of-pictures-every-day-but-only-print-a-few school.
9. William Eggleston -- not only the coolest name ever, but I also like his use of color
10. Dorothea Lange
Common theme: documentary-esque?
