i dont think the issue is on whether we should comment on each others work. You're correct, being in the photo forum is about showing off some work and hearing what people have to say.

I think the more important thing to learn here, is how to deliver the message/comments/suggestions. Because photo is art, and art is often a physical manisfestation of emotion, then one could be sensitive towards their photo. we just need to be sensitive to how someone else might take it.

sooooooooo, lets all be happy family and continue. yes we still want to hear your comments dafonz!

i don't agree at all here's why.

-i dont think artwork has to be viewed int he same positive way, for it to be considered 'good' art.
-what is 'good' to me, might be the opposet to the masses. what makes their perception of 'good' artwork more creditable?

ie/ look at maxim's photography. in a whole, i think its mostly crap. does it appeal to a large audience? YES!

when i read your above statements, in regards to the correlation between a widely accepted piece of art and 'good' art, i instead make the correlation between financial success and a widely accepted piece of art. i think if you want to be succesful financially in photography, you have to have images that are demand, therefore popular. if they're not, you'll have a hard time selling.

either way, imo, art is art. we're all entitled to draw the boundaries between 'good' and 'bad' art.

Well said, I agree with you 100%.

Domani isn't selling his images here, so technical perfection isn't an issue.
