Reflection:
From what I already researched, I think this photographer has many good photos that using Black and White effect. He can make the Black and white photos become more interesting and attract public. I like how he used movement, forms, shape and also playing with shadow and gradient. He also make us feel the feeling on that place when see his photos. Like in Asia, he shows the landscape, river and mountains with different color tone. And also the wide space to feel the relax part. Then, when in Europe, he usually shows the modern building with unique shape and more classical.
