Stelios Tsagris of Athens, Greece, is a master at black and white, fine art photography.
Within Stelios's images, there is a distinct element of expression, which is quite unique in its style and implementation.
Stelios uses the black and white medium flawlessly, with a superb handle
on lighting and contrast within his photographs. The use of these two elements is enhanced even more
through his ingenious ability to create "psychological burning and dodging" within his images.
Along with Stelios's use of these elements, there is also a definitive style within his work, which is quite alluring.
This style lends itself to creating a mood of intrigue, along with strong feelings of mystery. There may even be
an "other-worldly" touch to several of the images in Stelios's portfolio.
