An ode to great photographers

[NewsMan]

Thank you to the photographers who taught me to capture the main event.

Thank you to the photographers who taught me to look for the details.

Thank you to the photographers who taught me to look down.

Thank you to the photographers who taught me to look for juxtapositions.

Thank you to the photographers who taught me to look for love.

Thank you to the photographers who taught me to get down on my belly and get into the mud.

Thank you to Flickr for making such a killer community of people who help inspire other photographers. Thank you to Canon for making a tool that is amazing.
Hope you are having a glorious evening, just like this one. All these shots were made tonight with a Canon 5D on my evening walk.
Don’t miss our next photowalking with the National Geographic at Stanford University where you’ll learn some of these lessons yourself. You’re invited! Tom Seligman (Director of the Cantor Art Museum) has confirmed his participation in the photowalk.
Marc Levoy will be there, too. He is a CS/EE professor who has been doing some amazing work in the areas of photography and imaging.
