david maisel

i'm just starting a project for school designing the boston office of the department of neighborhood development and while cruising around the internet this morning i came across the photography of david maisel. now although his photography is purely landscape i think this would definitely relate to the urban environment i'm designing for. besides its obvious grungy, textural feel the coloring and contrast of the lakes, as well as the structural grids created by the banks, feels very much like a city's atmosphere - lively, structured (see tall building/home construction and web of roads), geometric, and full of color and energy.
