I sense a lot of resonance with why I 'get' many key images by the major photography talents out there and so many of the derivative images (including my own) that I see day after day in the photo press are so disappointing. I think this goes back to one of George's earlier comments about valuing an image. If you find a lot of expression in an image, something that keeps you coming back time after time (like I do with most of John Sexton's work for example) then I think you are moving along the line from illustrative to interpretive, and this makes you value the image more - maybe in a similar way to the truth/beauty transition.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14346892757178677868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27557058.post-19527832993528779512008-11-19T00:51:00.000-07:002008-11-19T00:51:00.000-07:00"If your images are illustrative and the ones you ..."If your images are illustrative and the ones you admire are interpretive, just maybe this might explain your frustration with your own images"<BR/><BR/>Definitely a sentence to remember and put on top of my considerations regarding my own work.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for putting this in so clear words.Markus Springhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08171659178955291708noreply@blogger.com
