I have to state that I am in this Club also.
I studied Art in school and "Fine Art" still escapes me.
This is why I don't post reviews to the Gallery,
there's stuff thier that I don't understand...
but people seem to like it.
I'm just a guy who Photographs people
for a (very) few paltry $$$ and makes them
look good!

what I like so don't try 'n fool me with that arty-farty
stuff, mate"
Yes. And I'm glad I had the chance to say that... So on behalf
of my bruvviz and I, I'd like, at this juncture, to say that
there's no sense in making art wot don't include us in.

Quoting Jan's remarks. Focus is critical unless there
is a distinct even definable reason to blur an image.
Logos, brand names, signs are generally held to be
readable....if they play a central role to composition.
Or, the specific entity does not want there logo or sine
to be seen.
A huge amount of viewers to anyone's image, likes to
understand. Bike enthusiasts as an example, love to see
the bike's brand name.
"there logo" should read “their logo" and “sine” should
read “sign.” Such is the problem with letting a piece of
software do your thinking for you.
Bike enthusiasts will already know that the motorcycle is a
1980’s model Kawasaki just by looking at it.
Ansel and others (myself among them) have always found it
difficult to explain photographic styles and methods to the
clueless, so none us try. If it has taken you this long to
figure out that my images make no effort to ensure that the
clueless get clued in, you have been looking at the wrong
thing.
