Ansel Adams.
The masters work.. Quite possibly the best landscape photography Ive ever seen, particularly the Yosemite gallery.

The great thing about Ansell Adams was that not only was he great photographer but he was an excellent printer too, didnt he help develop the zone system ? Makes you want to get out and emulate the man doesnt it ?

Yeah he developed the zone system.
A brit who does some similar stuff: http://www.davebutcher.net/
Met the fella, not the most personality endowed, but his shots are very impressive, he gave a talk at my photographic society and he showed a lot of manipulated images. All done in the real dark room and not the PS one!!!

, actually, I did a photography course at college some years ago and part of that was to shoot and develop and print a roll of Ilford FP4, and the first time you see an image appearing is really magical, shame my photography wasnt

Ansel Adams was a fantastic photographer, I could look at his images all day.
Dawn I love his pictures of Yosemite too, so many people have tried to recreate his pics, at the same locations, and just don't have the same results. He was awesome.
