Default Which photographs would you like to own?

Not sure where to put this but if it's in the wrong place please move it. So if you had unlimited funds what five photographs would you like to own.
My five in no particular order are:
Grain elevator and lightning flash by Frank Gohlke.
Ceremonial veil by Thomas Joshua Cooper.
Edges by Olivia Parker.
Garden, Sienna, Italy by Emmett Gowin
Ambergate by John Blakemore( the one with the ferns and silver birch trees)

Have fun, remember you have unlimited virtual funds

I can think of 4 off Ansel Adams originals that I would like to hang on my walls :-

- Mount Williamson from Manzanar

- Winter Sunrise, from Lone Pine

- Merced River, Cliffs, Autumn

- Clearing Winter Storm, Yosemite Valley

I'll have to think about the 5th- probably one of Herbert Pontings of Scotts 1910 Antarctic Expedition.

I have an analogue copy of Merced River, Cliffs, Autumn printed by Ansels assistant Alan Ross hanging in my hall way - and its fabulous

I own some of the photographs I always wanted, 3 John Blakemore, a Fay Godwin, Peter Cattrell and a few from lesser known photographer.

If I wanted more then one of Olivia Parker's images from Weighing the Planets, I like most of the images. Then a Thomas Joshua Cooper from Between Dark & Dark.

Ian which images by Blakemore do you have? My idea was for people to name specific images so we could look them up and be exposed to new work. There are so many of John's images I would like and Coopers too.

I once saw a vintage print of Frozen lake and Cliffs at the Ansel Adams at 100 show. It was only an 8x10 but it was stunning. Merced river cliffs is a great image.

This one
, and Anenome 1983 plus this one which he sent me one Christmas.

I've just been shocked to see the estimated values

Anemone is a beautiful image. His images have gone up in value, maybe too pricey for my pocket.
