"Emmet, Jessie and Virginia" Sally Mann

These are all great Michael! I recently watched a 2 hour documentary on Sally Mann's life and work.. incredible artist. She did a whole series on death that was rejected by the public for the most part due to its content... but I think did end up in museum.

Also alot of hoopla about her photographing her children nude.  ::)

Heartfelt story if anyone has the chance to watch it.

"Afghanistan" Steve McCurry

Another favorite of mine.. I have it framed from its viewing in national geo magazine.

Again.. nice collection!

Beautiful selection.  If I could pick a fave...

I really like

"A Sea of Steps" Frederick Evans

and Nomads by the side of the Road

and the very first picture, nude lady on the chair looks so much like my Mother.

Yeah, good photos. I thought also which one would be my favourite and started to look for it in this thread, but then it isn't here. Saw it somewhere else. Don't know why it came to my mind, it's not very pretty, eh. But very ...naked

Odd, i can see it here. Well, i saved it and here it is as an attachement.

And the text from that page:

"Stricken child crawling towards a food camp.

The photo is the “Pulitzer Prize” winning photo taken in 1994 during the Sudan Famine.
The picture depicts stricken child crawling towards an United Nations food camp, located a kilometer away.

The vulture is waiting for the child to die so that it can eat him. This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place as soon as the photograph was taken.

Three months later he committed suicide due to depression."
