He photographs every building in the same way, no matter whether it's a church or a museum or a library.
Sure, he accomplishes the technical work well. But everyone with a tripod, a good camera, a good lens and a bubble level can.
You just have to measure the room and place your tripod in the exact middle.
You don't even have to have a shift lens, you can do the straightening with Photoshop.
In some photos, HDR was abused and led to innatural results. Some of the photos are devoided of any shadows.
The third, fourth, and sixth photos are terrible in this respect, but there are other bad looking ones that I don't count. _________________ Orio, Administrator

I like them for this reason, actually.
And I agree that in some cases HDR was abused. _________________ C&C and editing of my pics are always welcome

My opinion is that every building has a different character, just like a person, and that a photographer should try to
capture that particular character in the photograph. _________________ Orio, Administrator

Orio is right , they are very TECHNICAL .This is that "something"in these shots. This is what I liked , I saw a lot of crap architecture shots (including mines ),that these poped out for me. .
Agree about the third ,fourth and the sixth pics and overdone HDR
And the term used by you , Orio, is very good , it slipped to me ,but it's really "surgical" .Very precise , cold . No inventions , no phantasy.
I'd love to see shots of these places in a different manner , as Orio suggests ,in a more "artistic" approach . _________________ Cheers , Teo

The shots certainly achieve their purpose: To show the stunning interiors of these altars to wealth, but they are very clinical and cold. |

Clinical yes, but also very appealing. A surprising number of architectural photographers don't seem able to get some of the basics -- parallel lines, for instance -- in their shots.
THe rest of his work that I saw on his website is also pretty clinical, but still fabulous. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/user/hancockDavidM |

I agree on this as well.
It's true, there can be better ways to shoot these interiors, with a more adequate approach, but I find the extreme "coldness" of these appealing under certain aspect.
I wouldn't use these as an example of artistic photography, but I like them. _________________ C&C and editing of my pics are always welcome

I agree with you ; but that shouldn't happen with proffessionals (and ,in fact , it doesn't ) .I think those bad examples are snapshots that come from amateur photographers . _________________ Cheers , Teo
