One of my all time favorite shooters, passed away this week, Irving Penn. Sadly there are fewer and fewer of my industry hero's left in this world. He may have been the most emulated photographer ever. If you look at the YouTube link below, you can see the style dozens of photographers have taken as there own. His work will always be held in reverence, may his soul rest in peace.
Irving, say hey to my dad when you get there.

Perhaps there are still some industry heroes (note spelling) left but the works of David Lachapelle, Elsa Dorfman and Cindy Sherman do not resonate with me in the same manner that Penn did.
