Since we're so used to seeing crappy ass photographs on the site.

Here's a photographer that even pros look up to:

somadjinn's deviantART favourites

Now there's creativity for ya! I can spend hours just analyzing his photos.

There is actually very little true photography on that site.

Most is simply graphic designs and photoshop workings. Nice, but not true photography.

The art of photography has changed. I don't know any photographer nowadays that does not combine both skills. No magazine now goes straight from negative to press. Times have changed my friend. In fact - My mastery of the first version of photoshop, while everyone was still film - made me insane cash with my photography back in the day. I paid my college with it.

Photographers now spend as much time in "post production" as they do out in the field (Adobe LightRoom is a great package btw).

Remember - I live in a city where every bozo and his SLR and 3 point lighting kit calls himself a 'photographer'.

I didn't look at them all, but the shots of the wildlife are excellent. The crane was awsome....

Interesting. I do like staged photos that tell a story. I really love what this guy does:

Gagosian Gallery - Exhibition - Gregory Crewdson - May 3 - June 7, 2008

I don't know how much is shooped in the sense that he has that oil painting quality, but he uses a view camera and stages the photos extensively.
