This was practically screamed by someone at one of my last critiques in school. "I am so sick of clouds! I never want to see another cloud in a photo ever again! It's so overdone!!!"

I would want to see a photo of clouds if someone could figure out how to do what Scriabin was planning to do in his piece Mysterium. Hang bells from them. I love insane composers...lol

I'm sick of people in photos. It's so cliche.

I'm sick of photos, they're cliche.

Gotta love the:

"I'm so sick of _____"
"_____ is so overdone"
"Shots of _____ are so cliche"

They're all over MM right now.

People are definitely cliche. Especially if they have legs. I'd like to see less legs in photos. Maybe amputees?

I think the preference was flat, Rochester grey.

Why do photographers always have to fall back on the cliche of a pretty sky? For that matter, anything attractive in a photograph has been done. I think we should all do ugly photos from now on. That's cutting edge.

Which forces a really bad joke...

LOL... thanks...

Btw, this was shot yesterday and is part of the artistic collaboration between the painter Andy Golub, http://www.andygolub.com and me.

He painted his faces on Courtanie... and you can imagine... it was freezing cold up in the Bronx.

What if we make our own clouds, like with white paint inserted into a salt water tank through a syringe?
