Been looking at some of the photographers that influenced me when I first started out - Robert Frank, Cartier-Bresson, William Klein, Walker Evans, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, Ralph Gibson, Clarence John Laughlin. Frank, Klein, and Evans still resonate for me. Gibson, not so much anymore. Meatyard, Laughlin & Cartier-Bresson are great, just not as influential any more. Who were your influences?
Which early influences still resonate for you?
William Klein - Candy Store, Amsterdam Avenue, New York, 1954-55
Robert Frank - Trolley—New Orleans, 1955 from The Americans
Walker Evans - Fish Market Near Birmingham, Ala., 1936
Henri Cartier-Bresson - Behind the Gare St. Lazare, 1932
Ralph Gibson - The Somnambulist, 1970
Clarence John Laughlin - The Masks Grow to Us 1947
Ralph Eugene Meatyard - Occasion for Diriment, 1962
