Re: three from William Eggleston
One of my favorite photographers, in part because he's so matter-of-fact in his presentation, while people like Arbus (to me) are more likely to seek out a (sometimes specific) reaction. He also has a very painterly sense of color (as has been mentioned here before), specifically in B, which is the one I voted for.

It's kinda depressing for a music forum to be proud of not knowing musicians.

I love his stuff. His book Chromes now goes for over 300 quid on Amazon.
I can never say what it is I like about art like this. Maybe you can.
Thanks for remindin me. There's a show of his at the Metropolitan Museum that's coming down this month, if it hasn't already.
The stuff looks fantastic in the really big prints thay have at shows.
