the work of michael ernest sweet

[streetstory]

hello fellow GRD IV users.

I came across the work of michael sweet ( apologies if this has been covered before), he exclusively uses the GRD IV and his images are, to say the least, worth a look.

What I find amazing is how close he gets to the subject. See what you think :

Not quite so close. I think some of these are cropped.

Yes, I agree, Michael Sweet's work is excellent. He does get really close, he's known for that though. If you look closely you can see that virtually none of his work is cropped despite the other user's comments. He's actually just one of those guys that uses a 28 and gets in deadly close. I like that. I've followed his work for some time now and am looking forward to his book which is supposed to be out sometime this year. I wonder if he will switch to the GR now? He always talks about his love of small sensors so it will be interesting to see what hhis response to the GR is.
