What trends are you a fan of or not a fan of? Personally, I’m hopeful that green toned grading will end sooner than later. I just don’t think skin tones and wedding dresses should have a green cast. It makes people look sickly and I can see it looking dated over time.

Street photography. I’m not saying all of it is bad, but 95% of the pictures I’ve seen are not interesting in any way except “The person I photographed didn’t notice it”. I don’t remember the last time I’ve seen a street photograph and thought “That’s a great picture, I want to see more from the photographer”
In most cases it’s skeevy as fuck too.
Like yeah yeah there’s no expectation of privacy in a public space. That doesn’t mean it’s moral to use non-consenting strangers for your photography project.
I have a lot more respect for portrait artists because they actually treat their subjects like human beings rather than objects, and can actually say something about their subject with their photo because they know who their subject actually is.
A good street photography is so hard and most that I see are just straight up bad
