I can't say I have a favorite photographer, but I do find inspiration from a plethora of journalists. Most recently, I've been looking at a lot of Danish photographers. Eric Refner is one. A lot of the work I've seen from the Danes has been very refreshing after shooting for daily newspapers. There seems to be something so pure and raw about their work that intrigues me. They all seem to share a similar style (like many American photographers do).

There are a lot of Danish photographers featured here. Also, I'm motivated by a lot of multimedia work, especially MediaStorm. But I'm sure all of you have scoured their Web site. They worked with us during the DNC to produce an overall piece. Go here to see it.
I did a lot of the protest coverage.

Community is huge.

There are a group of world class photojournalists working out of Denmark right now.

If you think they aren't talking, helping each other, pushing the limits, you don't get it.

Refner is terrific. Jan Garrup. Claus Bjorn Larson.

Check them out.
