Posted by SilverFox on Tue Jun 15 23:27:34 2010, in response to Re: 34 PhOtOs -- PEOPLE of the SUBWAY -*- 6/6/10, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Tue Jun 15 20:33:19 2010. Paul, allow me to chime in as someone who does not particularly care for Brian's web persona, doesn't take too many of his own photographs as he recognizes his relative inability, and who knows what he likes and doesn't like in photographs when he sees them, regardless of who took them. First of all, your photos, while overall good quality, are highly repetitious. The train is 1/4 mile away, it's nosing into the station, it's stopped at the station, and then we see the red taillights. Four photos of the same damned train. With cutie-pie commentary a-la Bob ("Let's paint a happy little tree; he lives right here") Ross, may he rest in peace. With all due respect, I'd just as soon skip that. Second, there's too much train most of the time and not enough surroundings. Again, that's just me. But if you took your inside access to your advantage, you'd show as much of the backstage surrounding the trains as possible for us civilians to marvel at. Then again, since shop areas change less overall than the surrounding area, we can soon grow tired of those shots as well. The trains, once again, for the thousandth time, are all the same, unless you show one with its bonnet bashed in, one with two windows that aren't OEM, or some other small but significant distinguishing characteristic. It's the same damned photo, over and over again. Trains wouldn't be around if not for people (or coal, or corn syrup). The trains are part of our region's sociology. Capturing that essence is the acme of artistry. Once again, while the trains on the outside are all the same, the INSIDES are truly unique and ever-changing. Who wouldn't want to capture some of this? This isn't a technical website, and I am sure that we can guess at the shape of the rest of the train underneath a model's tits lying on it. We're men, for crying out loud. Hopefully healthy, sexually driven men. Trains and girls can be like chocolate and peanut butter. Yes, each independently is quite good, but the two of them together can only be better, even if you don't ALWAYS like them so. I'm sure that even our homosexual faction can understand and appreciate this fact in context. Anyway, your railing against people in shots is highly indicative of some underlying problem preventing you from seeing more than just the merest sliver of the hobby in a vacuum without appreciating the bigger picture. While I think it is sad, who am I to judge what everybody's comfort level with anything should be? |
