Does anyone else get miffed when you post a photo of a neat place, lit well, exposed right, staged and framed well, etc.. you've taken great pains to be there at the right time, and done your due diligence, etc... to get a great shot.

and then

People only comment, "Wow! This would be a great place for a model shoot".

It's sort of rude, like in order for your image to be any "good" you have to have a half-naked model in the middle of it. :mad:

I guess maybe it's just more obvious, since you don't see people commenting about a model shoot, saying wow.. would you look at that grass field?!? Awesome!

I dunno... just an observation, call me weird or eccentric, but some of us have no desire to shoot people and find beauty in inanimate objects instead.

Haven't had it happen personally, but I've seen it plenty and I agree.

Well, what doesn't look better with a half-naked model in the middle of it?

LOL, that's funny. Reminds me of a reply you would read on a certain sports forum I read but it would have been a little more descriptive. I won't go there though. ha ha

I have to admit, I really do like partially or completely naked women. I just lost my train of thought. What were we talking about again?

But, scratch the word half.

I do remember your posts and your site. (catchy name too)

Good ideas. Good work. And they would make good backgrounds. Maybe you can sell then for exactly that use in composities.

I meant what I said. You're doing good work. You never know how you can make money.

Now, imagine what this thread could turn into if you had image editing ok turned on. Surely, some joker would paste something atop one of your shots. ;)

Yeah, well, Todd, we need you to recruit some half-naked (or rather fully naked) models! Your amazing shots would take on completely new meaning:)!

Unfortunately for me, my shots could use the help of some half or fully naked women. :)
