Did you look at his other galleries? If you do, you may find an photographer who explores deeply a number of different subjects. I appreciate his numerous explorations for their photographic qualities as well as their aesthetic appeal. > if the artists vision is so acute, why does upside down make it > better...? The fact that his interiors are lit by a pinhole in a window makes the images photographically accurate in two ways. I find that simple, elegant, eloquent and absolutely fascinating - visually. > or is it only because it is different, and therefore grabs > attention...? For me "different" doesn't grab my attention. The photographic accuracy and beauty grabs my attention and holds it long enough for me to feel myself in the room for these extremely long exposures which reveal all the subtle details of both the room's interior and the world outside the room. The concept of making a room into a camera and standing within that camera-room and photographing it with a view camera which itself is a tiny room quite like the room I'm standing in - well - it's all quite photographically marvelous and beautiful. The individual prints express a remarkable sensibility to time and space, architecture and more. Regards, George Lottermoser george@imagist.com www.imagist.com Picture A Week - www.imagist.com/paw_07
