Jorge,
Crossdressing penguines attending mass! That would be outside the box. I'd definitely give you a "Good job" on that one

Eric R.,

....This is a discussion about getting outside the box. So what if there's people that don't look at the galleries? Does that really affect your photography? No.

Grace I though you wanted us to get out of our comfort zone

Darn it! I was all set with an image of a sweater wearing dog standing in a naked landscape with an invisble nude all surrounded by waterfalls made of church interiors.

Mark,

Am I judging someone? Did I say that I though landscapes sucked? No. Did I say that I thought church interiors are boring? No. Did I say that I thought that my pictures were so great? No. I just said, I'm tired of seeing the same old things shot in the same old way then posted for all of us to say "Great job," "Nice shot," or "I wish I had this one." Its like were signing highschool yearbooks, "Have a great summer," "Stay cool," or "See ya next year."

It seems that we like to stay in our comfort zones. Why not get out of them for once and see what happens?

Have you ever considered that a dog photo, or a toilet, or a church interior is outside some people's comfort zones?

No, you did not mention anyone inparticular you lumped a bunch of people together. I was pointing out that your photos seem to be in the same class, just as mine are. Anyte asked you a very simple question: what do you want to see? I will add, what comments do you want people to make?

Grace your images in your gallery are shot in the smae old tired way as well. As the starter of this thread how about telling us how you are stepping out of your box?

Grace,
I've posted some special images for you in the critique gallery.

mark · Nov 3, 2004

Can someone tell me how that double quoted. It was definately not intended.

I for one am glad that we have the galleries, even though they can't possibly match what a real "printed" image looks like. I've been studying an image on the gallery "Moonlit Seascape" by Robert Jaques: (there was a url link here which no longer exists).

It's a very simple image, and I would love to be able to take something like that. Since I found this image, I have been on the lookout for locations where I can try to come up with something similar; not because I want to copy Robert's photo, but, I find his technique says something about the ocean environment that is different than the ordinary seashore photo.

Grace Cox · Nov 3, 2004

Mark,

You are still thinking that I am critcizing someone or some people. I am not. I am only starting a discussion on getting outside of the box. If I say that someone's images are stupid, then I'd be wrong. So I'll repeat myself, I am only saying that I am tired of seeing the same old stuff shot in the same old way.

And why is anyone asking me what I want to see? Its not about what I want to see.

Geez, can't even get everybody all worked up anymore. To many people on Prozac these days.

And just to set the record straight, I'm working on a shot of a penquin in a garter belt. It's been a long time fantasy of mine.

I think that's EXACTLY why we're asking what you want to see... You talk about being bored with photography but offer nothing new to challenge anyone. No topics, no ideas, no nothing.

Since you're so bored with the same OLD stuff... What new stuff do you have to offer? Why not offer some constructive input...

No offense to anyone in particular, but I can't take seeing one more waterfall, landscape, church interior, dog portrait, or nudes posted in the galleries.

I shoot mainly landscapes. Over the last year (in an attempt to get myself shooting again) I've been doing a project on waterfalls.

I shoot to please myself. I have no plans to change this or to stop posting. Feel free to avert your eyes.

Well we have traces of Prozac in the drinking water these days in the UK as so many people take it.

If you want to shoot a penquin whilst your wearing a garter belt who are we sto stop you
