I love Shaffer’s work. I’m enjoying the ongoing experimentation with color palettes. But I find myself especially drawn to those that are revealing of the city and that depict scenes most of us would otherwise not notice. They set his work apart, with their mixture of insightful subjectivity and the “I Am a Camera” objectivity of their photographic style.
