Brett Weston

i found Brett Weston by chance actually while searching for black and white photographers online . His work to me is wonderful esp for the time and he has some rather beautiful shots ;

these are my favs of his work , ive looked at alot of his work and i think that personally theses have the most effect on me when i look at them . 

I esp love , man in boat , new york , such a simple name and shot nothing over stated just a guy sitting in a boat with two other boats beside him . I think its a nice captured moment of natural expression . 

His work although i have noticed can slide over to the ansel adams pretty things side once in a while , but generally i think his work is great , the textures and sense of movement in his pictures really interest me .
