Bump. Simply because I liked the photos.

I have to ask are they digital photos ? I ask because I have seen quite a few architectural shots recently taken in the same fashion and they were all from digital camera users. For instance check out Billy Currie on Facebook.

I suspect the predominant use of a digital camera. His images do have the digital signature, resulting from the common use of a very short focal length lens that is evident in the exaggerated distortion of distances that emphasizes lines converging at a distant point. Not my cup of tea, but he does display a masterful skill with tonalities. Much of this work seems to be in the dimness of interiors or outside at night, so if it is digital there'd be no challenge with reciprocity. But what do I know, I don't do digital.

Yes, you are right:
He has now gone completely digital ;-(
When I gave this link then he was analogue!
There still are analogue images on his website, though.

I will go along with the digital suggestion.

Exaggerated perspective is hardly a 'digital signature'. Until mirrorless digital cameras, extreme wide-angle lenses for digital and analogue reflex cameras were bulky, heavy, expensive and often underperforming.

I had to chuckle at myself after hastily reading 'mirrorless digital cameras' as 'mindless digital cameras.'
