Missed the Point
For my Flickr junkies - this is brilliant. If you hang around Flickr long enough, you start to see the people who take things too seriously or have simply ‘missed the point.’ This page is dedicated to them.

How did you find that? Hilarious. And so true of Flickr! I think right minded people trying to tell left minders what is wrong with their photos is always good reading! “Crop - straighten - liven up the color - ” WTF? Photo shop has killed photography!

awesome, that is too funny. Though I have to admit I don’t get the point of the corner shadow in that one picture of the back of that guy’s greasy head. Then again I’m no expert at photo critique. I did belong to a critique group on flickr for a while (not doing any of the critiquing, of course) and this page was right on the money ;)

Lisa - I have to credit the Flickr blog w/ finding it, they posted it yesterday, but it was too good not to pass on.
Kat/Sarah (I never know how to address you!) - I wonder if a lot of these comments came out of those critique groups. I bet they are a gold mine of ppl not “getting it.”
