When I am in Smiths I quite often peruse Vogue. Stevie usually buys a couple of copies a year when they have a special edition. I have to admit the quality is not quite what it was but there you go. While I freely admit that my list specialised in fields of photography that members here may not relate to but their work appeals to me.
Probably an age thing Stephen, child of the sixties.
Looked at Andrzej Dragan but it does not appeal at all.
HCB, I went to a couple of exhibitions of his work in the late 60's. Great images but he appears lower down my list. That does not mean I don't appreciate his work.
I agree that there are lots of great modern photographers out there but my response was, those that came to the top of my head, and I expect others to have a different view.
