In researching famous photographers' quotes, I've made an observation...
Concise they are not. |

That's why you have to mine the quotes for sound bites :-) |

Here's one from Richard Avedon that I won't be using if anyone wants it; "The art of seeing is the beginning of Art." |

"In certain kinds of writing, particularly in art criticism and literary criticism, it is normal to come across long passages which are almost completely lacking in meaning."

It's for that reason that I didn't use my first choice title. Now I'm wondering whether I should change it.
Edit: So I tried, but it got truncated. I guess I'll have to stick to a title that doesn't fit as well as I'd like.

Last day of voting and I have as many votes for this as I do for Pathways, and only a couple more than the Mess challenge that went up yesterday. Sort of pathetic response, even though no one asked. |

People don't seem to like voting on challenges that require tying images into titles. I've noticed this before. |

a challenge well worth contemplating: a great variety, and to my mind some truly wicked stunners. |

There are some wonderful images in this challenge, regardless of the title. It is especially true if you view and vote after looking at the mess challenge; what a mess that is, lol! |

Agreed. And my reason (again) for encouraging participants to vote .... Please at least view your competition!

I could say so much about this, but I won't. That this seems to be the case confirms so many things about the voters and participants here for me.
