Nicholas Nixon gets a fair amount of respect in the photo and art community.  Rightfully so, I think.  These two photos of his blow me away.  The first one I could only find a small jpg of, but still look closely at all the kids’ faces from side to side.  Wonderful.  And not to get geeky on the “how” of it, but that he does this with 8×10 is impressive.
