Deadpoet said:Dr. C and I will forever not see eye to eye, which is fine, and perhaps a blessing.
he does not particular like my style of photography, and likewise, I feel the same for his work. Maybe his work is so brilliant that I cannot appreciate, that is absolutely fine. I like what I enjoy. Others I do not care.
What I cater to are photographer like myself, who likes to shoot portrait, in a much more straight forward manner. If Dr. C insists that these are mainstream, kindergarden, beginners stuff, so be it. This iw what I like and what I am good in. And I comment to the that I know best. You really cannot teach running before teaching walking.
As I said the the Colleen thread, I do not see too many real critics in CS. Dr. C, other than picking on my posts sometimes, do not criticise much. Neither do most of my detractors and trolls. Well, trolls and cloned trolls, they usually have nothing much to say. Very few people offer critics and real comments here, other than what I will generalise as "pro and nice" statements. Such statements made me want to throw up in 99% of the time.
As far as my lanugage goes, hey, well, I am not changing. My style of commentary suits some people and turn some people offs. So be it. The very cheesy "pro and nice" comments turns me off too.
Back the the Colleen comment I made. I really wnat to know, how was I insulting? I admit my comments on Tuck Loong's post regarding his 300D and Broncolor statements maybe a bit harsher, but if he did not his original excuse of why he is shooting with a 300D in the first place, have my detractors thought about that?
However to my detractors and trolls, cloned or not, it really does not matter I say.
I was really disappointed that the thread was removed. I do not belive Tuck Loong can do that himself. It has to be a decision by the Admin. I really wished everyone had the opportunity to read through the exchanges. Oh, I am not saying I was a boy scout. I am far from one, BUT, I have never start a personal fight. however, I will guaranty everyone that if someone becomes too personal, I will dish it back with interests and some more.
That said, I think the lowest of lows are the cloned trolls.
completely agree on the bold text... sometimes i felt that those pics really suxs but still ppl say its nice and such... but then i got no rights nor courage like DP to shoot them, neither do i have the skills to...
i dun give those 1 liner comments (dun shoot me if u find 1), either i see the image, i give my views, i dun understand some just put 1 liners like pro, nice, when its obviously not. All should be either constructive or forever keep quiet... DP's comments are imho, constructive, cos it triggers the senses, and u get to know what flaws u have neglected... just remember no picture is perfect, and a little critique will make your next shot better.
