Very nice, but some are not really good photos, they are good  because of very good and complex post-production.

(I like the one with children)

I was in London last week and saw the Sony Awards show.   Very impressive large prints on display.

As with all top tier photo shows, some were beautiful, creative work; some were skilled photo journalism, which typically means you go to some disadvantaged, conflicted part of the world and do street photos, and print them really large; and some were of the "hey, here are some ugly people who live in a mobile home, I  pointed my camera at them and pushed the button" school of art photography.
