Paul Politis

When I was browsing the internet on my tablet looking for black and white photographers I came across Paul Politis. http://www.paulpolitis.com/bwgallery/ At first I was interested but when I got on the computer where I could really see his work I became less interested. It's not that his work isn't good it's more that it's not my type of photography. I enjoyed some of the abandoned buildings he had photographed:



 but not so much the Dead of the Night series that was too staged:



He also had a series of photos that were blurred and crowds of people on a city street that were kind of boring to me. I really enjoy candid shots of people when some kind of surprise is involved like a facial expression or interesting situation just not people walking in the city.

I can see the value of his photographs and why other people would enjoy them but it's not for me.
