Jörg Zeidelhack hands down. His shots are clear and oh so nice. I love the pics of Dai in australia so much.

Have you folks ever flipped through Shull's coffee-table book Southeastern Rock? Beautiful climbing.
I really like some of Pattitucci's photos.

Thats funny.
Zak and Corey are definitely two of the most successful. I love Zak's work, but someone's gotta get that guy a web site, a color profiler and a new scanner.

Being Australian it is hard to go past Simon Carter. Neil Montieth seems to be constantly improving and has taken many inspiring images. You have to love Jörg Zeidelhack's work as well.

What's the difference between photography and farting?.....
In photography, it's easier to appreciate somebody elses..
Still, I enjoy mine too and this thread is as good a place as any to announce that I have a totally new photo site. I have secure online ordering of prints of all sizes with fast worldwide delivery. Some climbing images but lots of Yosemite, Joshua Tree, Arizona landscapes. Nepal and India are coming as soon as I can get them scanned.
I built the front end with useful information at
www.peaklightimages.com/PhotoHome.html
it links to my eCommerce site with the photos at
http://www.printroom.com/ghome.asp?domain_name=peaklight
Chris Mac gave me a gallery at the Supertopo site at
http://www.supertopo.com/rockclimbing/progallery.html?gid=20
Hey, you can get prints from 4x5 up to 40x50 inches, refrigerator magnets, T shirts, calendars and greeting cards too. If some face or peak in Yosemite is missing, let me know and I’ll hike up and get a shot of it sooner or later.
I’m even thinking of tracing routes like the Nose, Royal Arches, and the Prow on shots of Yosemite faces and making custom prints commemorating epic climbs that ya’ll have had. Maybe I should even do North Dome Gully even though it’s ugly. In my creatures gallery you can buy a shot of #46, the bear that ate your haulbag!
Right now I have an introductory special, 15% off all orders over $75. The prices are already the lowest in this kind of industry but I'm going to jack up the prices on the medium to large images in a week or so once I ensure that my printer is doing quality work.
Can't deny that some of the other photographers listed above have work that is as good or better.
But my farts smell better, at least to me.
Peace
karl
And if the above isn't spam enough, I'll post this in that Check out my website thread, since I'm told I have one free shot there.

Neil Montieth is my personal favorite, I'm amazed by every picture he has post, Harrison Shull takes some amazing pictures.

In reply to: In reply to: and epperson is so old he is about to dry up and blow away I don't know about that but what irritates me is so many of his shots are posed...some hottie hanging on to something she can't climb on the cover of a mag doesn't do it for me. He has a bunch of prints for sale on Webshots.com that are mislabeled. For instance, there is one of a guy stemming up the Cave Boulder at the Buttermilks with a rope hanging straight down and Basin Mtn. in the background...it is labeled Split Rock in JTree. There is another one of some dude on a route that is labeled Red Rocks, Joshua Tree National Monument. Epperson never answers e-mails pointing out these mistakes
you fuucking idiots. epperson basically invented modern cragging photography, in 1985, when he went into a machine shop and fabricated his "stilts" and combined them with the use of wide-angle lenses.
threads like this really iritate me because, once agian, we have a bunch of fucktards who don't know jack shit about the topic blowing smoke up one another's asses in an effort to appear knowledgable on the topic.
in order to understand the evolution of climbing photography, you need a full set of mountain, ascent, and climbing magazines going back to issue one, plus a selection of tom frost's work -- the first guy to really capture, on a routine basis, the wildness of valley wall climbing.
i doubt any of you have done any serious research into this matter, as you are all so off-base it's embarassing. nobody has mentioned bob godfey or dudley chelton yet. gosh, imagine that.
stick to shit you know about....like, oh, i don't know...the fine points of clipping draws on overbolted 11c's.
this is so much like the bachar thread. none of the participants know what they are talking about, but that does not stop that from posting up.
fuucking grommet n00b wannabe bullsiite artists. give it a rest.
