I see what you mean. I struggle to find his work even at the resolutions you've posted. I suspect that he has been very careful about allowing his work onto the Internet in anything like high resolution. Or, even "better than medium" resolution.

For example, I found this one embedded in a Wired article about him. While it's decent in total pixels, the quality has been gimped. Even the filename specifically says "lowerqual" in it. When You open it, it looks reasonably good, has an 82% JPEG compression, which is respectable but not great or pro.

However, you can immediately see the image is rotted with upscale artifacts and just blows all sorts of detail with "approximated worms" wiping out all crispness and lines. Looks like someone wiped grease all over the lens and shifted the colors under artificial light. It looks "good enough" for someone looking at it on a 6" or 8" phone screen, but put it up on a decent 2560x1440 graphics monitor and it just makes your eyeballs scream in pain.

No. Upscales are cancer and destroying available image quality on the entire Internet. Every fucking zoomer retard is "upscaling" shit all over the place and poisoning search results so original images don't even show up in search results anymore. Just rotted out, cancerous sewage.

Compare to the near-perfect crispness of this photo at original image quality. JPEG compression at 93% helps a fair bit, but there has been no upscaling. Probably hasn't been more than cropped to the dimensions he wanted to post it to his blog.

If you can't spot it immediately, use your browser to view the image at 200% and it should become very obvious.';

I use Google/Bing/TinEye to search for pictures and identify the best copies, plus various URL tricks to obtain the largest possible resolution. (If you see qualifiers like "-scaled" or "-640x480" or "?w=1024" in a .jpg URL, you can often strip them out and get the original source image.)';
