JOHNSON

Russell Johnson is a wild life photographer. Working all over the world including Asia, Africa and the Middle East. He learns new cultures and adventures ever day while capturing perfect moments in the wild. I think this guy is not just good at what he does but brave. I mean yes you can use a zoom lens but he has to be in some type of distance and some of these animals could be deadly. But the beauty he captures through them is amazing.

FADIMAN

ANNE FADIMAN

Once again i stumbled upon her, I was looking for some type of homeless photographer. Showing hardships and stories but i found this story and read it. With the pictures paired with the words it is breath taking. She captures more than just a mans face on the street begging for money. She captures the moments that we think about but are scared to imagine.

CHINLE

Cadence Chinle i stumbled upon. I am really interested in hula hooping and this caught my eye.Many hula hoop-inh pictures have been done but the way it gives her a roof top almost and like it is protecting her. As i looked through the site i noticed the strange subjects and views on things and people. The angles remind me a lot of my own photography.

LILIT

Alexandra Lilit. Her photography has common subjects. The dancer on the street. The replica of a fairytale. What is in her editing is what makes her stand out from others. Her subjects are the only subjects. there are no distractions or lighting screw ups, she is very aware of her surroundings and how it helps her photograph.
