as some of you know, I have been taking this summer to work on my landscapes. I think I'm getting better but I am looking for a "great" photographer like good ol ansel or cunningham. I was wondering if anyone knew of anybody. I would like someone with more a clasical style, mabey like someone who shot the wild west or something like that. needless to say though, anyone would do, even if they are just some random local photographer someplace. I am at a place where I need to shoot less and study more.

Do you just want the names of some? Or do you want to contact them to pick their brain and get some one-on-one mentoring???

Hi there,

This idea might be a bit left of field, but could be good: John Constable is "an English painter, ranked with Turner as one of the
greatest British landscape artists." You could google him or get a library book on his work. I'm sure you'd learn plenty about landscape composition, and styling pastural scenes.

Ed Spelling. Doh!

a list of names is what I was looking for, but the other option wouldn't be so bad

I think, after I study up some more I'm going to write a long post on what I have learned on landscapes...I wish someone would have done that for me

If you want to see and study the works of great landscape/nature photographers; Charlie Waite, Joe Cornish, Jack Dykinga, John Shaw, Galen Rowell and David Muench are some names off the top of my head. You can find more here. In addition, in this web site you can find many outstanding landscape photographs.

I love landscapes,only problem I have is capturing "down bellow",when I'm on the top of the mountain because of 2D limitation of the photograph.

Here are couple of new photos :
