Re: [OM] Best Photographer Ever

Surprised that anyone should have link problems - they are as I find them.
Do a google search on the name - that's where I got them. It's worth the
effort - honest. I just get a little tired of people trotting out the same
old Masters when asked questions like this when there are some BRILLIANT
artists working now. The smog.net address has others too. Witkin is a
shocker but there is no arguing with the quality of his work - I've used
him to challenge my student's ideas of what constitutes a photograph.
