meh. Boring, but then I find most landscapes boring.

Seriously? Outstanding? Why?

Seriously? Troll much? Why?

I resisted responding to your first comment giving you the benefit of the doubt that you weren't trolling. But obviously you are. Seriously find something better to do. I'm not defending my photo, because i will happily accepted yours and anyone else's CC. But I am addressing your trollish tendencies which I've seen from you in the past.

I recall very recently giving you thought-out positive feedback on one of your wedding threads. And I get "boring" and trolling.

Thanks.

It's not trolling, it's genuine.

What's more is it was stated with a caveat. I outright told you that I personally find landscapes boring as a class... I did this so that you could take it into account when reading my comment saying it was boring.

I don't "get" landscapes... like not at all... this isn't to say I find them distasteful... it's to say I don't personally understand why people are drawn to them. You may as well speak Greek to me. I don't understand Greek. Does that mean it was poorly assembled speech? No. It means I don't get it.

My question of why this was an outstanding landscape was genuine. I want to know why someone regards it as so. Perhaps it will make me understand landscapes better. Perhaps it will make me think the person doesn't know what they're talking about and I can discount their assessment. Who knows? I don't.

There isn't a whit of anything confrontational in my posts.

What is trolling? Looking for a fight? If I want a fight, I'll start one. People around here regard honest (and frequently even well-mannered and politely delivered) commentary as "trolling".
