Hats off to anyone capable of coming up with fresh ideas, unseen effects and uncharted territories.

Love it.  Really imaginative and well-crafted.

I saw the second one, Versailles, at an exhibit at the Annenberg Space for Photography here in Los Angeles exploring the intersection of art and technology.

http://www.annenbergspaceforphotography.org/exhibition/digital-darkroom

Seen in person, the size, scale and detail of the work are amazing; the examples in the web article does not do it justice.  I found myself "exploring" the small details of the image in the same way I would examine the brush strokes in an oil painting or the glaze of a ceramic piece.

Love to look at new thinking as that inspires me to other experiments.

I love this, so inventive and mind-bending.  But it does not touch my soul, which is my acid test.

I like it.  Some are more inventive than others, but in general it is a new and creative use of the fundamental digital photo compositing techniques that many of us already use on the small scale.  Take a simple idea and carry it to the nth degree. COOL!

The photographs are impressive technical displays of Photoshop prowess. But they lack of any of the poignancy that I expect in fine art.

I don't see them all as "clever but soulless" and some of them do engage me emotionally as well as intellectually. There is a tension between the impulse to explore and the slightly creepy feeling of the mostly deserted terrain one is exploring.  The figures in the landscape invite me to join them. Thanks for the link, Isaac.
