POW: cinnamon sticks


basil brush

Recommended Posts

I have never bothered with the front page of photo.net.

 

I go straight to www.photo.net/bboard every time.

 

I haven't looked at POW since there was one of of a red plastic ball on a piece of agricultural equipment in the middle of a field. (A few years ago now.) It put me off reading those posts forever.

I'll go with Jeff on this one, not my cup of tea, but a definite

thought process at work (sounds much more common than it

actually is)- and the amount of people imprinting themselves (by

their edits) on the original is quite telling. Like a photoshop

pissing contest at the photographers expense.

When looking a photos that are new or different, I've found it's important to

hold off being judgemental right away. Sometimes a photo takes a while to

grow on you. In fact, I've taken photos that I thought were absolute garbage

only to realize sometime later that this garbage shot was actually the biest of

the bunch.

Actually I thought the cinnamon sticks were among the better POWs in the past year. Not very exciting (to me), but... The moderator seems to value technical perfection above all other values, and if there's a good gimmick with it, she sees Art.

 

Is there a revival of Pictorialism going on, esp., in eastern Europe?
