These are incredible! I love his work. I think the fact each photo has a touch of a human element to them it allows the stark contrasts to more relatable and a bit emotional.

I’ve also been working on doing more high contrast photos. Mine aren’t as dramatic as Kris Desautels though. Here they are if you are interested in seeing them: https://matthewtrader.com/the-last-two-days-of-2020-in-chicago

In reply to Rob. It's not about the camera. It's about the artist's vision.

In reply to Rob. Man Ray did a lot of post processing too... then again these could be pretty much as shot with the right eye for light and the camera settings to match. I think they are absolutely brilliant!

Too much post-processing for my taste. The camera is so far removed from the final product.

Finally, anti-HDR. Very nice!

Looks like Ray K. Metzker.
