Spencer Brown

Spencer Brown is a UK photographer most known for his long exposure work on the southern coastlines of England, I like the more minimal work he does with this. Although I'm usually turned off by this kind of black and white landscapy thing, the use of long exposure gives the water a flattened, smooth effect which is really interesting to me, using the camera as a tool to see/express things differently than they appear to the naked eye. I also just realized how much he's influenced by (or rips off of) b&w photographer Michael Kenna:
