My new bedroom is painfully bare. I need to find some good pics and/or posters to buy, frame and put on my wall. Who are your favorite climbing photogs who sell prints? Can be any type of outdoor mountainous activity really-- rock climbing, ice climbing, hiking, skiing, whatever.

Ill throw out my favorites too in a bit but I dont want this to seem like I am trying to advertise for anyone (because I am not). so I'd like to get some others throwing out some opinions first.

Also, you know that pic of Honnold standing with his back to the wall from "Alone on the wall"? Is there a poster of that? I cant find it anywhere.

You'll never tire of seeing a Vittorio Sella gelatin silver print on your wall. Sella is one of the greatest mountain photogs...ever.

I was going to mention Brian Bailey. Strong stuff. Rowell's great too but more for scenics. Heinz Zac has done loads of great work too. If you like B & W, check out Bradford Washburn.

Michael Gordon has some great mountain and desert photographs.

His photos aren't necessarily climbing related, although he is a climber.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
