I read your above essay and I agree with what you're saying, but you're still wrong about that picture. It's terribly boring. In fact, I usually click through the last read on all the photo threads I read and I had seen this earlier and assumed it was in the "snapshot-a-day" thread, until the discussion went further and I realized I was in the "post awesome photos from other photographers" thread. I know exactly what you mean about banality, and I've taken banal photos that are very intimate solely due to the fact that they are ordinary objects that express some sort of emotion or feeling, but that photo is not banality. It's just goddamn boring.

dreggory posted:For those of you who think that photo is 'goddamn boring' I'm curious what your opinions are of work like this: Disclaimer: I know very little about art besides photography I'm with bottom liner on this one. I think there's a divide between photography and other types of art because inherently in photography you are limited by capturing something that is real (even if you edit it a lot or whatever), so the the way in which you portray emotions, meanings, or themes in photography are inherently understood by pretty much anyone because its things that they can conceivably see or, most of the time, things that they have seen. On the other hand, with art sometimes its esoteric and for that reason I don't think I really "get" some art. That said, I think its interesting and it would make an interesting print to add some flair to a room but in terms of deeper emotions and feelings, I don't really see much in it.
