I don't care for the subject matter, so the lighting to me is "meh"

Why so serious?

I think the lighting technique that he uses is unique and to each their own. I have a hard time getting anything out of his work because of how scummy he is as an individual.

Hard to notice the lighting with that one! lol other aspects of the photo are too distracting... (ouch!) And where did you get that picture?? If it's not your photograph it would be better to post a link to the article where it was published (or other source) so the photo is credited.

Rude lighting for a rude subject. In other words, the lighting does work, for that particular shot. Hardly the lighting I would choose for many other subjects.
