Sheesh, this guy had a bulging portlio and we could all devote a dozen threads to Steve's wonderful style and his wonderful ability to evoke deep feelings in his images

this one stands out for me, it was around the whole abandoned boats in the marsh era that I began to realize just how much of the magic Beachcomber had in him.. and he continues to hit home runs

To me, this is near perfection

And this simple Photo by David has done more for me when I am out shooting then any other ... it's simple, in plain view and I would have just walk right past it.

I still think of this photo all the time and remind myself to look , cause I never know what will see.

there are sooo many more who've motivated me and inspired me, but i wanted to just chose the most important two .

great idea for a thread !!
