Here is a Cartier-Bresson imitator.

The rest can be found here.

Nice!

I have no idea what this dude's (Pieter Hugo) other work looks like, but these photos, from this set are fucking heavy.

I'd like the first one about 4' x 6'. Could stare at that for the rest of my life. How do I make that happen?

I second Wolf, Parr, Soth, Misrach.

I'll add:

Simon Norfolk (especially 'The Supercomputers')

David Maisel (especially 'The Lake Project')

Edward Burtynsky (especially 'Shipbreaking' and 'Quarries')
http://www.edwardburtynsky.com/

and Chicago's own Brian Ulrich (especially 'Copia')

They're all supremely gifted.

Shit those are great, Itchy.
