how come?

It's a pretentious picture of nothing. I know exactly what the person was going for but it fails in every regard and is literally just an emulation of some other photograph the person has seen. It's a copycat photo that is bland, uninteresting, mediocre, and a complete pile of shit.

looks kind of like formalism, but not a very good shot regardless

feels like 'New Topography' but I'm no genius with photographic genres. I'd probabaly even say that it's not objective enough to fit properly within that namesake. It seems like a very popular genre amongst young photographers, they seem to love highlighting suburban mundanity

If you're just looking for IG tags, the intention was to make what I think is called deadpan photo

Key to a lot of more artsy styles is to have a body of work, a series of photographs that fit together to form something meaningful

It's something mostly overlooked here where we usually judge each pic individually. Bring an anonymous board also encourages that, but also because most of us are amateurs

There is nothing to see in this picture and it even fails at basic image quality.

It's strange for me to see photographs like these nowadays. I thought that with digital cameras being as cheap as never and with almost everyone walking around with a smartphone capable of taking decent photographs and with social media allowing everyone to share their photographs with an international audience the competition to get your photographs noticed would be so big that everyone would try to take as eye-catching photographs as possible.

>with the abundance of digital cameras, taking a good photo is easy

Well, apparently, it's not.

Nailed it on the head

Didn't even know what it's name was until today but I've tried capturing images that fall under the "deadpan" category and it's not as easy as one may think. It's best to leave it to film when taking pics of that kind, the colors looks better whereas digital deadpan is generally blander.
