Whoa. Very cool.
Yeah! The photos are ridiculous. I can only imagine how many expensive cameras he must trash to get these sorts of shots.
Regardless, we win because of it! ;-)
Those are amazing! It would be great to buy prints – I can’t tell if he’s selling prints or just originals. And I can’t figure out the price, either!
Thanks ,
That is nice picture.
