outstanding

if i have the money, i would pay a grand per image i like and hang them on my wall.

Reasonably good work but nothing outstanding that couldn't be gotten by anyone with a bit of patience and the willingness to travel.

I think theyre nice. Looks ike something someone would sell at a boardwalk store.

Also, Id like to mention how cool it is that 500PX isnt blocked at my work, but flickr is. Guess Ill have to switch over to 500PX.

Lots of identical images with different processing. Still, some nice compositions except I bunch this style of photography along with puppy pictures and the majority of flower pictures. Sort of Elvis on velvet. Just my opinion.

Eye appealing, but unnatural.

Nice images, but nothing I haven't seen before.

They're nicely done, long exposure shots.

If I didn't have photos with similar colors in the sky at sunrise and sunset, I'd say he's gone a bit too far with the saturation...and there's still a couple of the shots that seem that way (a bit too much color in the stones and water in some of them).

I think he's done a great job from taking shots from just a few locations (it's obvious he has a few favorite sites to shoot from) - he's choosing great weather conditions and time of day to get those shots.

Sadly, there are a plethora of photos that these could be shuffled in with, and no one could ever tell them apart - it's not that his stuff isn't good, it's that it's become commonplace.

i prefer some of the lesser saturated stuff.

Same here. I mean, it's pretty good, but to me it's just a little bit bland and uninspired. Compositionally sound and well-exposed, but just not very interesting. Not that there's necessarily anything wrong with that, there's definitely a market for these kinds of pictures (and I don't even terribly mind doing that kind of stuff myself, sometimes).

I will say though, that I'm not a fan of the extreme oversaturated/overproc​essed look.

EDIT: As for the poll choices, I think that "all of the above" could have easily been added.

I voted 'pleasant'.

Really pleasing to the eye but unfortunetly they all look alike whilst flicking through them. As LeeRatters said the less saturated stuff is the best of the bunch.

Got filters?

I remember his album from the thread at cameras forum.
"7D and 10-22 lens" or something like this.
Nice place he lives to take pictures.
But they looks the same. Same things on them and same colors.
I looked at one, another one and it starts to get boring. Water, sunset, another water, another sunset and nothing new conceptually at all of them.

Water's edge long exposure photos like that are a rather common type of landscape photography and they seemed very similar to each other.

While I appreciate the artist's work and quality, it's not my cup of tea.
