Once upon a time, my local camera club was trying to come up with monthly 
themes for their upcoming photo competitions. I suggested having an "ugly 
subject" month. The idea was, to photograph a subject that you felt most 
people would not find attractive -- be it human, landscape, mechanical 
device, whatever -- and try to actually show your skills as a photographer 
-- instead of trying to impress everyone with your personal taste in pretty 
girls, or your adoration of cute, adorable, children or cute, fuzzy, house 
pets. Absolutely no one was interested in my idea. No one wanted to 
concentrate on the photography itself, instead of on the relative beauty of 
the subject, not even for just one evening.


take care,
Glen

Actually, that's a good idea.
