Wayne: I think you've done a good job of explaining what you don't like about Jeff's photography. If you were just presenting your views, I think that would be sufficient. However, you asked that others re-evaluate their views (about Jeff's photos in particular and photography in general) based on your views and assertions of what constitutes photographic art. When someone else requests that I reconsider my views, I expect them to a.) present new evidence that makes my views less coherent, and/or b.) point out some flaw in the way I currently think about the subject. In my view, you've done neither--you've presented your opinion quite effectively, but you haven't presented any compelling explanation of why your opinion is in any way superior to mine. And I'm far too lazy to reevaluate my views every time someone disagrees with me. I'm not trying to be combative here; I just want you to understand why I don't find your arguments compelling.(posted 8642 days ago)Jeff: Thanks for the kind words. My website is currently aimed at potential wedding/portrait customers, is in serious need of an overhaul, and would not be of particular interest to most people here. I hope to have it completely redesigned and updated soon, but so far, simply hoping hasn't been especially productive. The best place on the web to see my current work is at photocritique.net.
