If i am ever feeling uninspired, and need to pick up some drive, or want to improve my work, i look at some of the world's great photographers. here's a list of some of the more recent ones I've come across. you may spend hours at each gallery, so maybe just try one at a time to really soak it all up.

if you have any suggestions for inspiring galleries that i have missed, please just leave a note!
