and produce nothing worth being remembered

>>3004114
To be fair I'm sure 99% of the people on this board are not gonna be remembered unless they shoot up a school

LOL! Yeah pretty much covers that. Somebody may even get remembered for photography too, if they suck the right gallery owner.
That photo has Richardson lighting technique I see. Hell looks like one of relatives too.

>Richardson lighting technique

So no technique?

>>3004103
Well that pic is fugly and just hard to look at so if you're going to "get real" at least make it look like something that doesn't belong in a landfill somewhere.

neither poverty or misery are desirable. but the jew art mafia at NYC validate such depictions because its a safe way of poverty tourism for the burgueoise. i grew in environments like that, with people looking just like that, and the last thing you want is to show such images to your social circle.

diane was a qt.

>>3006569
Exactly LOL!

Might as well be using the flash off of my old Graflex Speed.

>tfw not charismatic enough to pass off my shitty snapshits as desirable art
That's really what all of this was about. Marketing/charisma. These photos are objectively shitty, and subjectively shitty to most people. Somehow the people who took them managed to convince others that they are some form of 2deep4u high art, that's a skill in its own but it isn't artistic skill.

>>3004103

wtf is that orange bottle? why is it shaped like that?

also that photo sucks dick

How can you guys hate on Richard Billingham? Rays a laugh is an amazing book.

help! i've fallen and i can't get up!

>>3006642
You need marketing and charisma to get anywhere with your shots, regardless of how good or bad you think they are. Its pretty rare that you'll just get picked up by someone if nobody even sees your work at all.

>>3005009
Don't give me any ideas anon
