I also saw some of his travel shots from Tokyo and Paris, which seemed like they were missing something. I had a similar experience in both those cities too -- I spent many days walking around with my camera, but couldn't really find anything that worked when I looked through the viewfinder. To this day I have no idea why, especially because I found both cities to be incredibly interesting and beautiful in their own ways.

checking in with craig cutler
I've always liked Craig Cutler's work. I remember seeing his still lifes and landscapes in the award books when I was still assisting, and wanting to shoot like him. I checked out his site today to see some new work, and found some cool portraits from Texas that incorporate three views: front, left, and right. Kind of cool to think about scouting for these kind of shots.

Maybe since those areas have already been raped for images, therefore any picture you take there doesn't seem new. It comes across as being done before or un-inventive. Begging the question "well what hasn't been done there?"
