Does this guy use photoshop?

Ive always considered a digital SLR and always thought that in other countries lighting is a bit better which = great shots, i.e street lights in America etc but it seems like a large range of photographers use color balance on photoshop to give it a green/blue hint etc,

anyway this guy has some great stuff and has an amazing camera, i think its over 7K, but colour hints in some shots seem a bit unrealistic

**** me that music is annoying... I'll have to look at it later when I'm not so irritable.

It looks like he's used some kind of imaging software for the few I saw, to apply a vignette effect. If you had to guess, you'd say it was photoshop alright.

There's a lot of content on that site, which images did you have in mind specifically? Link?

There's more to good light to those photographs. Some of them have been photoshopped to hell and back. He has certainly achieved a very distinctive look.

I hate music on websites and when you want to go into the website it opens a new window. Pet hates of mine, his shots better be good....

Hmm some good shots in there but some not so great too - few borderline soft porn shots IMO (not that there's anything wrong with that but it ain't always art!). Some serious airbrushing going on in some shots especially with the more glamorous subjects - standard "erotic" fare, certainly nothing ground breaking here.

Oh dear, he has "boundaries" spelt wrong in big text right in the middle of his fancy music-laden splash page.

Oriel

Of course they're photoshopped.

Is that one of the girl in the fetal position disturbing to anyone else?

Yep, definitely photoshopped..

doesnt matter if PHOTO is spelt wrong, his ideas/techniques are magnificent but this whole aspect of photoshop puts my respect for him down the drain.
ugh
