The reason i find Sugimoto's work so enthralling is because of the way he looks at nature in interesting ways, sometimes there is a surrealaspect to his work:-
I like the fact that in the image above he has composed the photograph to be stereotypical of the human sepecies, i also like the way that the viewer's eye is drawn automatically to the more darker part of the image, whereas the background creates a subtle setting and explanation for the whole photograph.
Anotther image that i think he captures nature well is below:-
Here I think Sugimoto has really thought about the composition in the photograph, with the horizon towards the middle of the image and the way that the lighting creates a lovely contrast betweenlight and dark.
Another aspect of his work that i found to be intriguing is his photography of architecture like the image below, depicting a concert hall:-
In this image i really like the way he looks at the huge scale of the stage, along with the contrast of light and dark in the middle of the image which draws the viewer's eye immediately. I think this all goes towards creating a highly awe inspiring piece of well thought out photography.
