I could not list another photographer if I tried... I don't really have any hero in photography. I just do what I do!

I have no heroes in photography, but I do have people who I admire .... no one famous though.

I met George Lepp over a weekend not too long ago, and found him to be a really cool guy. I appreciate his work, too, so the meeting was a bonus. I'm not much of a "hero worshiping" kind of person, though.

I don't have any heros either except for those posting on the Glamour & Nude section.

I guess photography is not like sports or politics
Or maybe 'hero' worship is too strong a word for a hobby

I don't. I like individual images and am not really that interested in who took it, more how they took it or how they conceived the image. Same with movies, I like the story not the actors, though I may be impressed by their skill.

I do however enjoy meeting photographers, I guess because we share something.
