Galessa is one of the people who make Flickr great. To begin with, he's got a great eye for the 'interestingness' of an object. He tends to collect vintage objects and very often knows a great deal about it's provenance, historical uses, etc. Galessa's photography techniques are frequently flawless - almost to the point of appearing unreal.

This and all of the above makes him one of the Flickr heros in my book.
