..and by Peter, the pontificator of the mens room masterpiece....
Hehe, both fun shots :)
Inspired by Ed Leveckis
Well for me it was first graksi, for his brilliant surrealistic picture that graced the cover of our RFF book, and then the shot of the swimmers by Todd.Hanz. It was Todd's pic that persuaded me to buy a Canonet QL17. :) Thanks guys!
Hmmmm, very difficult! I'm not perticularly inspired by a specific member or his/her work. Mostly I get ideas from single photos but these are not necessarily by an RFF member.
Nice thread. My homage is to an image by HBC. Here are the links, and below the images.

Very early on here at RFF I posted some photos from the Mansfield Training School. Richard provided very good constructive criticism, challenging me to get closer, go wider. When I went back and shot my neglect series this was my attempt to answer Richard.

The excellent B&W work done by many members here was an inspiration when I took these shots. I've never been inspired by one photographer or one image, but more a compilation of many get consumed and I regurgitate what you see! :D

this photo (http://www.rangefinderforum.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=2285&cat=4855&page=1) was somewhat inspired by Rich Silfverberg's pic, the one that was his avatyar for awhile, in black and white.
OK, maybe not really inspired, but when i've seen the scene, i instantaneously remembered his pic and pressed the shutter release.
Nice pic Pherdi, and that happens to me as well, I mean, each time I see an 'over the shoulder' scene in any of its variations (baby/dog) I recall that photo from Richard :)
Thanks for the contributions guys !!

Wow... I'm flattered! :)
Oscar, I've been looking for a situation similar to one of your shots. I think the title is "1, 2, 3..." and it's a blond woman walking in front of a door (nice street shot!). Also, I keep in mind Richard's "Over the shoulder" series, and the great photo of the firemen laughing at the kid in Chicago.
Here's my best bar line shot. And if I get one shot inspired by someone here, I'll post it too!
inspired by you:
Just found out today, now I am embarrassed, Todd. I know I saw some Chipotle shots somewhere but I had no idea it was in your gallery:) .
Just one major influence for me...
