Recently bought the Keith Carter DVD from Anthropy Arts after reading the article Susan wrote in Black & White. Its about two and a half hours long and full of wonderful creative photography.  Any other DVD's on the market worth checking out.  :o

Here's a few.

Walker Evans America was one of the films that reenergized my second incarnation as a photographer

There was a great Strand video I saw years ago--not sure --but I think this is it.

I'll second the Nachtwey one - fascinating more for trying to work out what makes the man tick than anything else. If you're an Eggleston fan you might like the '...In The Real World' film - personally I found it infuriatingly vague, slow and meandering, but it got some good reviews so maybe I'm just missing the point.

Thanks Susan and David for your suggestions, browsed both these sites and there is a wonderful collection of photograpic goodies on offer. Going to start the Christmas shopping early.  Also found a new book from Chris Killip coming out in January 2007 which will be top of the shopping list.
