Why does what other people choose to shoot bother you? Almost everything I photograph produces cliche images. I'm not "a photographer(tm)" - I'm a person who happens to enjoy taking photographs, and who values them mostly based on the memories (or ideas) they evoke, rather than on any artistic or technical merit. There are several other people on the list whose subjects don't do anything for me, and more than a few whose personal choice of style doesn't speak to me. But that's a personal thing between me and the photographers in question; it's obvious that many of the other folks here have a different viewpoint. Even photographs that I personally dislike are, generally speaking, technically well executed - I'd probably have more of an issue if images were over-processed. Fortunately that rarely happens here. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
