I came across the website of a guy on 1x.com called Codrin Lupei. Some will not like his stuff…others will…more will call the guys in the white coats! I like it and find it fits in well with my train of thought at the moment. I don’t expect this type of post processing which resembles high noise, poor image and lack of detail to be attractive to most but that’s not why I do it right now. Tis for me!
Very interesting stuff and I particularly like #1.
I think it has a mysterious feeling to it and I feel the figure adds to that feeling.
Nice dense blacks but not totally blocked up.
I thought movie poster on first sight.
#2 is well done too but somehow dosen’t hold my interest like #1.
Cheers John. Like I said – not everyones taste particularly more traditionalist “from the camera” photographers but it’s what interests the originator, I suppose, that matters most.
Thanks Mark…interesting links and both have become bookmarks. If you see any more like that please do pass them on.
I like the first one here Alan,
as for the general style I’m a big fan of pictorialism, and would like to dabble in those types of shots.
I guess one could classify Codrin’s photos as pictorialism, many of them look really good.
