Sunday Morning Photographer: Eschew Clich
This week Mike Johnston looks at photographic clich?...
“The urge to make clich?s stems from a desire to make pictures that look like everybody else’s pictures. Why would anybody want to do this? Personally I think it’s because it relieves us from having to rely only on our own judgment when evaluating what we’ve done. Photographers, far more than other kinds of artists, are perpetually insecure about whether what they’ve done is going to be accepted as good.”
