    I’m baffled by this photo. It is objectively below average and yet it’s being shared here like it’s some brilliant work of photographic genius.

    • horizon doesn’t match the cropping and doesn’t do anything interesting that would make it seem intentional.

    • random roofs of tents are creeping into frame and again, they don’t seem intentional

    • underexposed and muddy

    • it’s shot at sunset but we don’t even get the hint of extreme contrast that sunset offers. Did you shoot a jpeg in a situation that would have been far better with raw and post-processing? It certain seems like it by the look of the blown out street lights.

    I honestly could take a better photo by just waving a camera around and taking massive amounts of photos then selecting one.

      It’s art, it’s entirely subjective.

      And if you really could, please, feel free to post it, I’d like to see it.

      Cheers, man!

        Actually, you probably have seen my work if you watch movies… but for obvious reasons, I will remain anon.
