Meet Ari Gabel. He's a student at Ringling College of Art and Design. He's super talented and that's why he's number four.

Something that he has consistently done in his photostream (especially his older photographs) is that he photographs things that are almost run down and abandoned. This includes people and objects too. A recent post of his shows a girl sitting while doing laundry, and she looks tired and rundown. Also if you go farther back in his pictures you see him shoot a lot of abandoned places like a water treatment plantation. I really like its almost like he rediscovers it.

Another great thing about Ari is that he photographs what he knows. For example, most of his photostream is made up of his girlfriend, his friends or family and places he comes to. I think its a great thing just to photograph what is familiar to yourself. And that way its different for each person.
