This is working on the basis that there is something there to understandksmattfish said:Try putting more effort into understanding Adams,
Hertz van Rental said:I didn't say that. What I was saying was that sometimes people are seduced by the subject and though the photographer has very little input he gets praised for being good when it is the subject that does all the work.
This is something that you have to bear in mind when looking at photographs and judging them critically.
And Adams does deserve a place amongst the greats - it's just that some people rate him far higher than he deserves.
On the contrary - that is the easiest thing in the world to do. And that is just what Adams tended to do - certainly with his landscapes.ShutteredEye said:Wouldn't you agree that one of the most difficult things to do as an artist is to get out of the way of the subject?
Quite right, but you make the mistake of considering a picture of something beautiful to automatically be 'Art'. And that someone who takes pictures of beautiful things is automatically and 'Artist'.ShutteredEye said:To discredit an artist because he took photographs of beautiful subjects is foolish.
Hertz van Rental said:There is nothing wrong with this - but it doesn't make Adams an Artist.
