I've been a fan of this PBS show since I saw the first episode from season 2. Yes, he uses and is sponsored by Canon...oh well...
If you've never seen it, he basically goes on a photo tour of a country/island/region and takes amazing photos. The videographer is also great, showing alternate angles and scenes on video.
The flow of the show is: Art travels somewhere, usually with his camera and tripod over his shoulder...he sets up for pics and the videographer also shows lots of details. Once they're done photographing that animal, landscape, waterfall, etc, they show 5 or 6 selected snaps Art took.
Here is the site of the show, and his
homepage. My favorite episode hands-down is on
Iceland. I want to make it there someday after having watched this show, especially since I've only seen it from 30-some-thousand feet in the air. Now that's inspiration.
His
abstracts are absolutely breathtaking.
Any other fans? It's kind of hard to catch since PBS changes their schedules a lot. I've had luck finding it on PBS "Create"...your PBS channel with a -3 after it (mine is 21-3, for example).
