Off center

The last photo in today's series is a big reminder that the theme is "amateurs."
The photographer didn't even get the subject all the way into the picture.

  1. Not only id it off crnter, it's washed out. The man is fairly handsome, and not cheated in the male department. So the photo does have some socially redeeming qualities.

    1. Yes, I should have mentioned that blanching, and your right about the redeeming elements.

  2. Yes, indeed. We get so used to seeing the colossal talent of professional photographers that we sometimes forget just how spoilt we have become.

    1. True. I would only add that with the advent of decent cell phone cameras, the quality of amateur work seems a bit better lately. Of course, statistically speaking, the sheer number of pictures being made these days would more or less have to result in some good ones just by chance.

  3. For me at least, the flaws in this photo add to its appeal.

    1. That's actually a valid artistic point of view, Dan.
