After a few good debates & converations with people whose work I respect ( & like) I have decided that I'm not taking any more notice when my work is criticised.
Some of the best photographs in the world aren't technicaly "correct", but if somebody loves it then so what ??
Everyone has their own style, favourite subject etc....if we all liked/shot the same thing life would be boring.
With so many photo editing tools about we can make any image look just how we want....but we can't change what is pleasing to our eyes can we ?
Don't get me wrong, constructive critism is great.....but what is constructive about commenting on something that you'll never like no matter how well taken the shot is.

What I like about DA is the open mindness of everyone....people appreciate things for exactly what they are & don't try & sway peoples ways of viewing & thinking.

Hmmmm that was a bit in depth for me
