People pay for this stuff? 

As Ansel Adams said about Edward Weston's nudes, they look like dead bodies.

Image quality, mediocre. Some downright awful. Maybe you need a Photoshop
class? How are the prints? Do they have the flat, poorly-printed look of
the photos on the web site?

Subject matter, not appealing to me. New age, witchcraft, mumbo jumbo don't
turn me on.

But there were a few nice images here and there. Some of near-misses.
