 I was looking through that challenge, this is the weirdest DQ notice I have ever seen:
 Entry must be taken with a digital camera. Photo must be taken within the challenge dates. Photographer is dead. Dead people can't submit to challenges. Please review the challenge submission rules.

		| | Can I do people from DPC? They each have got a certain quality about their work and I wonder how well would a submission based on a living photographer be digested here in the DPC community? |

 I don't see why not, IMO many people on here are "well known".

 Its because its picture actually clicked by ANSAL ADAMS and not by DPC member.

		| | I have Yosemite in my backyard. I can't imagine not taking a whack at this one, even though I'll be lost in a sea of far more skilled digital darkroom users. 
 It would have been interesting if it had been 'photographer or artist' -- imagine the Caravaggios and Vettrianos.

		| | Thanks all for letting me know the BIG names. So what shall I be doing now - 
 1. Pick the favorite and click with his/her style?
 2. Or click the photo and find out who's style it matches with ;)
 
 Anyway, a good exercise to know the professionals/artists in this area.

 Nope. Henri Cartier-Bresson, reputedly the greatest street candid photographer of the 20th century print all his work with no post-processing whatsoever. Every image unprocessed, uncropped, straight out of the camera.
 
 True genius and something to aspire to.

		| | How about Robert Kaplan, Dianne Arbus, Robert Frank, ulia Margaret Cameron, Alfred Steiglitz, Roger Fenton, Fox Talbot, Man Ray, Bill Brant etc etc | 
 | 
		
			|  | 01/18/2006 03:38:26 AM · #24 | 
		| | Maybe if we used the photographer as part of the tile then we can all say "ahhhh yes that's a Diane Arbus image alright". 
 Any thoughts?

 Nah, I'm going to go for those aspiring photographers, some not-well-known ones so nobody can say "dont look his work to me, DNMC!!!" lol
