De gustibus non disputandum est and all that, but in the year 2000 there was an Arnold Newman retrospective exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington DC. It was breathtaking. The Newman's exhibition was on the second floor and Leibovitz had, at the same time, a portrait exhibition, called Women, on the third floor. There is no comparison of the quality of the work and, in my view, Leibovitz was unfortunate to have exhibited at the same time as Newman — her work simply could not stand up to his.

He was one of the greats, no doubt about it. His picture of Igor Stravinski just blew my hat in the creek as a young man! Then I listened to The Firebird and well...

It is not ok to post photos you find "randomly" or any other photos unless you are the author....

From "The Golden Rules of RFF" -

Rule No. 6 - No Public Posting of Copyright Material
6) You will not upload, attach or post any material you are not the creator and/or copyright holder of. It is however acceptable to post links to publically accessible material.

please remove the photo
 
I'm with Pablito. It's bad enough the general public help themselves to photographers' images off the web, let alone other photographers who ought to have a grasp of at least the basics of copyright law. You haven't even provided attribution. And yes it is a breach of forum rules. So remove the goddamn photo. Please.

Coffee or camera commercial?

Correct. It is from the 2012 Lavazza Calendar, 12 Master Photographers who have worked on the calendar over the years. So yes, it's an advertisement for coffee. Gotta wonder if Fuji was in on the deal as well ;)
 
What a miserable thread.

SOmeone posts a photo from an ad with Annie Liebovitz.

Bunch of people who own cameras pop up saying she's no good as a photographer.

Bunch of people claim she looks funny (like, er, is looking like an Adonis a requirement for male photographers?).

Finally, rff rules quite clearl forbid posting copyright images; but in this case, the image is an advertisement! The criteria for fair use are therefore quite different.

where nothing is in focus..

Well said & Thank You Paul !
we poor Female photographers have to jump more hurdles & get put over more hot skewers than our male counterparts

'Pablito' Loves to rat , oops I mean remind us of photo copy infringement whenever he can perhaps he can find employment in 'Big Brother Photo Thought Police' ...

Ha ha ha! Pretty pretty funny! I deleted a few other remarks :) But I will say, I know from personal experience that Annie can be a creep to photo assistants -- and as a photographer I can understand why some people aren't fans of hers.
