Edward Burtynsky, OC is a Canadian photographer and artist.

Born of Ukrainian hertiage in 1955 in St. Catharines, Ontario, he studied at the Ryerson Polytechnic Institute, where he graduated from the Photographic Arts / Media Studies program with a Bachelor of Applied Arts, and at Niagara College, where he obtained a diploma in graphic arts. His works are housed in over fifty museums worldwide, numerous corporate collections, and books.

Really like his work on Chinese manufacturing which can be seen here and also on DVD.
