Amazingly sharp, detailed photographs. I watched the behind the scenes video with interest and discovered that these pictures were taken with a medium format digital back that is similar to what I use (Leaf Aptus, but not sure what model he’s using). Impressive considering that medium format cameras are not known for being nimble creatures. There must have been countless throw-away missed shots, but the payoff is right there on the page.
