MALAK is a toughie for anyone out side Canada, he is the brother of KARSH and famous for his scenics with tulips around the Canadian Parliment Buildings. > And I presume it's McCurry the Afghan Girl guy and Evans the Hungry Eye > guy. That's correct > HCB: the Decisive Moment of the guy jumping, or the bicyclist, or the boy > with 2 bottles, or the picnic on a lakeside, or.,,, :-) Now yer beginning to cheat by offering more than one photo. :-) But he does have so many well known it's very tough to say what is the most famous? We'll let this go for another entry person. > Ansel Adams: as I have 2 of his prints done by Alan Ross, it's also too > easy, but my favorite is Moonrise over El Capitan.

As this is the most recognized photograph in the country even though most people have no idea who the photographer was. :-( ;-) > Robert Capa - the D Day landing Yes correct! > Natchway - I love his work, but try hard to FORGET the images. It's too > depressing. I can't say an individual photo that stands out on it's own. I'm sure there will be reminders later. > Lange - the Migrant Mother. Yes correct! Well an interesting first entry. We shall see what comes. ;-) cheers Dr. ted :-) > On Sun, Dec 12, 2010 at 8:08 PM, <tedgrant at shaw.ca> wrote: > >> Hi Folks here's a test about a photograph and who the "famous >> photographer >> is who shot it?" >> >> Don't look up anything on Google because that's cheating. >> >> Name the immediate photograph that comes to mind when you see the >> photographers name: >> >> One photo only to your immediate name re-action: No cheating looking it >> up >> o Google OK way you go! :-) >> cheers, >> Dr. ted >> >> HCB..... >> Eddie Adams........ >> AnselAdams......... >> Ted Grant............ >> KARSH......... >> McCurrey.......... >> Malak Karsh...... >> Robert Capa....... >> Walker Evens......... >> James Natchwey...... >> Dorthea Lange.......... >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Leica Users Group. >> See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information >> > > > > -- > // richard <http://www.imagecraft.com/> > // icc blog: <http://imagecraft.com/blog/> > // photo blog: <http://www.5pmlight.com> > [ For technical support on ImageCraft products, please include all > previous > replies in your msgs. ] > > _______________________________________________ > Leica Users Group. > See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
