Pretension induces mediocrity in art and life

Photographer Christoph Morlinghaus has been living and working in New York City since 2002. The native of Hamburg, Germany captures stunning architectural and interior shots. His quick reactions and lack of planning add to the beauty of the photographs he develops. He claims in an interview that "Even if I have more time, I try to work as quickly as I can. When I spend too much time at a certain place, the images tend to be too pretentious and artsy" Amen to that. Enjoy.
