I like the lighting in each of the photos. The sun’s light has been used wonderfully.
Before discovering Tom’s work I didn’t even know that there existed such a thing as Urban Photography. I am more than happy I discovered him.
You should make a compilation publication on the photos you have of New York. You have quite a lot of them.
The abandoned barn in Stamford is without a doubt the best. Everything about that shot is perfect!
The professionalism exhibited in these photos is something worth marveling at. I am a big fan of your work Tom.
I like how Tom is able to identify buildings long abandoned and turn them into art through photography. It’s like giving the buildings a new lease on life.
