Evan Leavitt Southern Gothic Americana Photography

Athens, Georgia based photographer Evan Leavitt has become a bit of a Flickr superstar through his documentation of the rural South. Leavitt’s photos incorporate a post production texturing effect to make them appear somewhere in-between a photo and a painting. In some instances it gets slightly too HDRish for me, an effect I’m not particularly fond of, but more often than not the photos turn out to be wonderful moments in a weathered and seemingly forgotten land. Somebody get Jen Bekman on the phone and get this guy on 20×200. I’d buy about 100 of these as photos if I could. The good news is, Evan is prolific with his art and continues to share through his photostream. Which means I continue to enjoy my daily trips to the rural South.

He's good. I agree that some of the HDR is overworked.

You can buy his work here:

This has got to be some of the worst hack photography I have ever seen !

The obvious over exposure would be due to a lack of the photographers
basic control of the shutter speed along with not being acquainted with
proper aperature/ zoom/ flash use. Tsk tsk.

DON'T quit your dayjob.
