Too many to mention.
None mentioned - none forgotten.

I'm in agreement with Tommy. Too many to mention, and the risk of forgetting someone makes it a dangerous game to play.
However.......
A couple weeks ago, I posted a picture my wife had taken of me. I can safely say that she is my favorite photographer, even though that's the only picture she's taken in 43 years. (Unfortunate choice of subject matter, though)

It all comes down to personal preference anyway. By the way, you cannot really tell from the forum, or can you?

This forum's full of awesome photographers. They're all amazing, but if I were really to only choose one, I'd have to say I really like benvision's work. I really enjoy his Russian Fishy shots :)

I'm very impressed with Wazza, and always look for his photo posting. Claire has some really nice photos too.
I'm sure there are many many more good photographers here but can't remember their names right now.

I see so many that I admire. Just to name a few though:
Scottes
HJMinard
cfcRebel
Charlesu
Reigh Higgins
Freddycr
Marie

J.A.F.Doorhof
Just to name a few. I really love this site. I've learned so much here. It's the best "Photography School'' you could imagine. Also, I would certainly be remiss if i didn't mention Pekka Saarinen, whose original shots I saw so long ago with his G1 prompted me to buy my own G1 and get started in this wonderful pastime of digital photography. Thanks all.

Unfair question, I won't answer :D
Basically I agree with Freddycr, I'll wear my fingetips before even reaching half of the list. And I need them.

There was one gentleman from Wyoming (I think) who used to post some absolutely breathtaking landscape pictures. I haven't seen any lately, but he is, far and away, my favorite. I just wish I could recall who it was.
This is, in no way, meant to slight anyone else here. Given my preference for the aforementioned photographer, let's just say that it would be a pretty big tie for second place...

There are many good photographer's in here but if i have to picK one who give's good advice and takes great shots of a fast moving subject it has to be Kenny G.

I don't recall seeing any of his photos posted, but how about Pekka for providing us with the forum. Great work.

Nope! I won't do it!
I have to say that any who look at everyone elses work and offers useful advise is at the top of my list. I have learned quite a bit from just lurking around here for the past month or so.....

Thanks, theres some good stuff there. I particularly like the dark, snowy landscape shot.

Pekka is responsible for me buying a G1 and getting into this stuff in the first place, and obviously for coming to these forums. I think his photos are awesome.
Lazarus is my other favourite photographer, but he's been quiet for months.
I usually enjoy anything by Olegis.
There are many many photographers here who I admire technically, but not necessarily on an artistic level.

Without a second thought or reservation I can unequivocally pronounce my favorite photographer on this forum as Maureen Souza. Her eye for the photographic opportunity is fantastic as is her ability to beatuifully decorate a home. She is a wiz at post processing and cooking. Her printing and gardening are beyond compare.
Above all she puts up with me.:oops:

Just kidding, I am glad to see you treat each other with such respect, great post!

Oh my gosh, there are too many great photographers around here! In all honesty I many times see a picture I love, but totally forget who the photographer is. :o So, I guess for me it's more a question of remembering the art than the artist, which is kinda the way I like it.
And yes, this is a bit of a dangerous game to play, but in all fairness I admit to being a big fan of Charlesu's work. He's probably the photographer I've followed since I found this site.
I recommend Raduste's potraits. Found them last week or so and was blown away.
Spock84's self portraits are the best male nudes I've seen in a long time.

Okay here we go. With 30,573 members, I'll put them in order from favourite to least favourite.:shock:
1)........
Just kidding.:roll:
Every single person is a great photographer. They just may not know it yet. No matter whether you're 8 or 80, compact or SLR, digital or film.
Every single person who can press a button, has the ability to take a great photo.

It's a bit of an unfair question as i think everbody is good in whatever they do with a camera......but i will pick one who a lot of the times has a lot of good tips and remaks about most peoples shots and thats RAW...

I am a versatile photographer, so I have a whole bunch of photographers of different kinds that I think are truly amazing. Art comes in many shapes and sizes, I consider myself a becoming artist and I find a lot of inspiration here.
With that said, there are many exemplary artists here.
Don Ellis deserves his named mentioned, his macro and infrared photographs are jaw dropping. We all know the @ss kicking nature photographers here, CDS, Scottes, IanD, Ssim, and a few others, J.A. Dorhoff for glamour, etc... <- most creative, I think. Then sGu's sports photos rock, etc.. and many more...
Also, I think there are MANY hidden talents here as well, those who don't share much.
