Much of it have been discussed lately. Today, I received a joke email from a colleague at work and i thought i'd pass along. It's not my joke, it was probably gotten via tons of forwarding mails along the way but it's pretty funny. The comments reminded me of people on DPC :)

Who's to say it's not flowers and babies? :-)

Devoid of feeling to you, but perhaps not to someone else. Isn't it about how a particular piece speaks differently to different people? Angst that looks forced may leave some people cold and others might hold it up as an example of emotion in art. If everyone liked the same things, then we would have NO art. :-)
At the end you have to have some common ground with others to speak out for.
But then again, some photos are just boring. :) I may not agree with the art i am seeing but at least it's not boring. just my 2 adult cents.
