I have no other words that I can think of that can describe how amazing these portraits are. The majority break some of the rules of photography but they do so exactly when they should be broken.

His work has made me want to face the cold weather and actually trek through the busy city over the weekend and shoot similar portraits ! :eek:

I am a fan mate. I can see that you shoot many of your portraits in a very similar method. I can see why this would interest you. Not all of them are technically brilliant but some really do capture emotion

All very similar and all heavily processed. Some nice onces in there but don't do much for me - give me an Ansel Adams collection anyday.!

A lot of them just go to show how good PP can really make a picture.

Not that everything else doesn't help (light, expression etc.) but a lot of it is (very similar) processing.

Some very nice photos though.
