Masters of Photography with their Iconic Images

Re-Post Of StudioVox Crew - June 20th, 2016

Because I love this site and love what they do and are doing with spreading the word around of amazing artist is so many forms I am glad to have the opportunity to be able to re-post there daily post that I get from them straight in to my gmail.  Lucky me and lucky you since now I am posting them here.

No this is not some lame way for me in skating by and taking it easy in creating new post just for my blog here................ or is it.........  OK, maybe a little but really, for at least a couple of weeks now I have been wanting to figure out how to save all the wonderful emails I do get from them on a daily basis and only wish I had been doing it sooner but glad I am doing it now.

So I will probably be posting these past paragraphs for a little bit until I feel it is necessary not to do so and a link to StudioVox's site as you see below.

The StudioVox Crew
When you look at an iconic photograph, the photographer who captured the shot usually doesn't come to mind. Who is the photographer behind the shot?Tim Mantoani answers this question in his series, Behind Photographs. The series is a giant collection of 20×24 Polaroid pictures of some of the world’s most iconic photographers holding their famous shots.
“We have come to a point in history where we are losing both photographic recording mediums and iconic photographers,” Mantoani says about the series.“While many people are familiar with iconic photographs, the general public has no idea of who created them. This book became a means to do that, the photographer and their photograph in one image.”

Jeff Widener and “Tank Man”
Harry Benson and “The Beatles, George V Hotel”

Neil Leifer and “Ali vs. Liston”
Steve McCurry and “Afghan Girl”

Lyle Owerko and "9/11"
Mary Ellen Mark and “Ram Prakash Singh”
Douglas Kirkland and “Evening with Marilyn”
