The photographs that impressed me...

I am also impressed. Especially the one from Gursky show what only a great master of photography is able to do. The eccentric composition of straight lines and the way he plays with the natural light and handles the contrast in this image is well worh $3.9 million for the original print... I wish I bought it! But I am sure my wife would be very angry with me if I come home with such a thing.
 
If megabuck photos are the name of the game I'd vote for a previous record breaker...Steichen's "the pond-moonlight". Seriously though - it is a beautiful print. I love Steichen's early work. If I had mucho money I might have pushed the bidding to $2.7 million 🙂

Steichen's, Weston's, Steiglitz's money bringing photographs aside.. (no discussion about them as they are not of the "mentioned" category.. 😉)
