Sometimes, we just need to laugh at ourselves.

Sounds like the C&C's we see here... : )

[brucecahn]

Excellent!

[catherineadams]

I needed a good laugh today. You (and the writer) certainly provided it!

[gsphotoguy]

This is very funny but it hits the nail on the head. I guess we have all gotten some comments like these.

[phyrpowr]

Thank you, but I have quite a sufficiency of people who laugh at me now

[MichaelChang]

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. What's one to say? Wow! Great! You've captured the soul of.. ! <br><br>

Funny thing is, I actually agree with some of the "critiques".

[sknowles]

Thanks. I don't feel so bad now when, after showing friends some new prints, they get this blank look on their face like

saying, "Huh? I don't get it." And they always like the ones I don't but took and printed "just in case."

The hard part is to decide who your intended audience is for each of your pictures.

 

 

If it's just for yourself it's a form of masochism to put it up for comments.

 

 

(But I still put them up because I'm looking for kindred spirits. When I find those I hope they help me by pointing out the ways in which the picture can be nearer to my own preferences.)

 

 

Anyway, I loved the link. (Maybe that Henri guy should use longer lenses so you wouldn't even see the person in the foreground...)

My favourite: "Your problem here is that your AF has focused on the wrong place—the man is actually kind of soft!"

Having spent my life in the classroom the line between humor and stupidity has gotten quite ragged, particularly in my own stuff.

The more gadgets we surround ourselves with...the harder it is to see the heart of the art.

[seismiccwave]

That was funny only because we understood what that meant. Art is a funny thing. It is time specific. When an artist is

ahead of his/her time no one will appreciate his/her work. Usually an artist is under appreciate during his/her life time. Art is

also subjected to marketing strategy. Many wonderful art pieces were ignored because of lack of marketing.

 

I can sympathize with some of the comments made. I don't agree with many of them but I can see where the comments

could be real.

[robertjewett]

I am totally ahead of the curve, and no-one gets me.

 

I think under-exposed, out-of-focus, over-processed (with MS PAint), lit with on-camera flash pictures are the next thing. (Scurrys away to snap pics of aunt Gertrude on her plastic covered couch.)

Good one...I think the funniest ones are those that go into discussing what kind of gear would be good for improving the shot, like it would matter...
