I just stumbled across this on Kris Krug’s blog. Not sure how many Famous Photographers are in the pool of options, but it pegged me as His Adamsness…
| Which famous photographer are you?
Ansel Adams: Known for large scale silver gelatin landscapes especially of Yosemite National Park “Sometimes I do get to places just when God’s ready to have somebody click the shutter.”

I got:
Henri Cartier-Bresson: Known for street photography and photojournalism
“We are passive onlookers in a world that moves perpetually. Our only moment of creation is that 1/125th of a second when the shutter clicks, the signal is given, and motion is stopped…”
Well, it’s true that I’m no Ansel Adams. I rather like the quote though.
I’m certainly no Ansel, myself. I don’t have the patience to take several days/weeks setting up a shot. I do like the Adams quote, though. (and the Cartier-Bresson quote, too).
i got Joel-Peter Witkin, but i really would like to think i’m more of an Anton Corbijn.
