I thought that if you ignored the subject, the ones I posted were some pretty good captures.

I like how the rule of thirds was followed in the pic of Hitler. The composition also used very nice leading lines... notice how your eyes are drawn to Himmler, and then to Hitler himself.

Obviously you think the shot's you posted were shit based on this comment.

Garbage in your mind because the subject is ugly right?

Do you think his policies and what he has implemented and wants to implement will not affect those making under $200,000?

My point was that the subject matters. You said "Forget who's in them for a minute..." You can't do that. A good composition is only a small part of it. The subject is VERY important.

Would the Hitler picture be "powerful" and one of the most famous of an entire generation if it was some random guy standing there instead of one of the most evil men in the history of the planet?

We studied Leni Riefenstahl and Triumph des Willens in a class in college. She was groundbreaking in her film making techniques. The film was made in 1935. I did not agree with the politics in it.

Of course not.

Some of the CIC pics ARE good regardless of content.

This one is terrific.


So is this one.


This is total bullshit. Everyone know's black guys dont drink beer from the tap. 40's bitch.

Wait a minute? You actually buy into the class warfare angle? Do you think that everybody who makes over $200k/year is a crook, criminal, or con artist?

From a purely artistic standpoint, I don't disagree with that.

The problem is that to some, including myself (and obviously War Eagle) the subject trumps the composition in this case when it comes to either a positive or negative opinion being formed about the pictures as a whole.
