This image shows a businessman with his back facing the view, and arms spread out, holding a birdcage in his left hand and strings attached to a dozen or so flying birds. This is a very powerful image that is thought to represent mans dream of flight, or showing the impact humans are having on the environment in modern times, kind of holding back the natural progression of nature. Shooting against a blank background helps to focus the attention on the subject with no distractions. The composition does a great job of keeping the viewers eyes moving around by dispersing the birds to the top of the frame and then pulling the eye back down the strings to the main subject. This image looks as if it was shot on a medium format camera, considering its squared aspect ratio. To make the background blurry he used a large aperture and to get the birds still, he used a very fast shutter speed.

It was hard to pick just one, so here's another one of their work. This work is entitled Burn Season and depicts a man in a business suit, with many small bags of water attached to himself, walking into a burning field. Its possible that he's committing a sacrifice of some kind.
