Sally Mann

Sally Mann

Sally Mann photographs portray beauty and individuality of her three children Jessie, Emmett, and Virginia. Sally has many published books that include At Twelve (1988), Immediate Family (1992), Still Time (1994), What Remains (2003), Deep South (2005), Proud Flesh (2009), The Flesh and the Spirit (2010) and Remembered Light (2016). In 2001 she was named “America’s Best Photographer” by Time magazine. A 1994 documentary about her work, Blood Ties, was nominated for an Academy Award and the 2006 feature film What Remains was nominated for an Emmy Award in 2008. Her bestselling memoir, Hold Still (Little, Brown, 2015), received universal critical acclaim and was named a finalist for the National Book Award. In 2016 Hold Still won the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. Here are some of her photos that I like because they are so unique.

Joe Rosenthal

Joe Rosenthal was a photographer, reporter, and honorary marine.  His photograph is one of the most iconic photograph's ever. It is the Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima . In doing research about Joe he was rejected by the U.S. Army as a photographer because he had poor eyesight. So, he attend the University of San Francisco  later he joined Associated Press and fallowed the United States Army and U.S. Marine Corps. When Joe took this ionic photo it was in the middle of chaos. The first rising of the flag he did not get but he was so focused of getting the right shutter speed on his Speed Graphic he ended up getting the second shot.  Speed Graphic Camera source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Rosenthal

Kelli Connell

Kelli Connell is known for her work of multiplies of herself in one photograph. After doing a multiples project I admire an have so much respect for her work of art. She must have so much patience while doing this kind of photography. Honestly, I am at a loss for words.      source:  http://kelliconnell.com/

National Geographic

I was originally going to just choose a couple of photographers from National Geographic but, It was just way to hard to narrow down to just two. There are so many amazing, outstanding, and absolutely stunning photographs to choose from. There are photographers, photojournalist, scientist, a whole TV network, producers, all kinds of editors, the list just goes on and on. So, as you can see it is very hard to just pinpoint just one. Here are some of the photographs that I have enjoyed.  PHOTOGRAPH BY MILAN RADISICS, WILD WONDERS OF EUR   OPE Victrica Falls Photograph by J. Phillip Nix pHOTOGRAPH BY MAGNUS LUNDGREN PHOTOGRAPH BY ANNIE GRIFFITHS, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC CREATIVE I HAVE CHOSEN TWO PHOTOGRAPHS FROM VICTORIA FALLS MAINLY BECAUSE IT IS JUST ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
