I do prefer HCB's, although it is far from his best pictures. Adams',
as most of his work, is just another postcard, a beautifully rendered,
trite image.
Sacrilege!!!
We're not allowed to make pictures for the joy of having something nice on
the wall anymore. The times have changed, if that's all you want, buy a
cheap velvet art piece, preferably of either Elvis or Marylin.
Photographs have to have a message, they have to be socially relevent and
important to be valid.
At their very least, they have to be taken by an over rated Gallic
predecessor to Kenny boy to make the grade.
