I feel like we've had this thread before.... 10D and a sheet of cardboard with a pen hole in it.

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with those images. I just have no idea what makes them worth that much money..... Maybe if I where super rich I would understand..... It's the people behind the image, not the images themselves. If you take away the names and try to sell the images, you'd be lucky to get a few bucks if anything at all but tack on Gursky or Sherman on the photo and suddenly is priceless.. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

I think they are all kind of ugly. Just because they sold for a lot of money does not mean they are in good taste. And it doesn't mean they are in bad taste, either. It just means they sold for a lot. I don't care for the subject matter of any of them, and I also don't care for the composition of most of them, with "Rhein II", "99 cent . . .", "The Pond . . .", and the Weston being possible exceptions. "Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.

But it's not about right and wrong. It is about what we like and what we don't like. "Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
