Very cool!
misogyny rules…ok.
haha the guy is an absolute nut, i love it.
Thank you very much aldoile its great to hear that my work is an inspiration to you.
btw. a good copy is better than a bad original!
Agreed.
I’m a photographer and David if u ever read this (probably not
You are the no1 inspiration, your work is genius!
To each his own.
he is the worst
saying there is no great artistic ability, what a thing to say… don’t talk if you don’t understand photography (especially colour and composition). He understands colour so well and uses it very very well
Sorry but I am not impressed with his work and do not see any great artistic ability.
this guy is amazing
he’s absolutely brilliant!
i dont know why people get so bent out of shape about where an image originates from ! stop calling him a copycat ! he simply belongs to the same genre or family tree as pierre & gilles,this doesnt make him a copycat ! if all his images were b/w who would you say he copied? and besides when i think of a lot of photographers today who emulate successful photographers in order to get noticed i think they are the most brain washed and uncreative.
Go to my channel and check out my photography. Im giving my pictures away for FREE cause I want to share my art with the world! You are welcome to use them for your desktop, etc! Enjoy!
