What do you call this kind of photo?

shit

The photographer saw SOMETHING. Inside of every bad or mediocre shot is the potential for a good shot. Something motivated the shooter to snap it, but in this case I'd say they didn't quite capture the essence they were hoping to.

I don't even know, and that's like half of the shots I enjoy taking. It's kinda landscapes with a little bit of still life thrown in? But this particular shot you could call almost okay, kinda boring, kinda decent colors, kinda awkward shadow.

You're too kind, anons. I haven't seen the fog this thick again all year but once it is I'm jumping outside.

boring, easy

"Clipped red channel"

it's called deadpan, not a good example of it though. we literally had this exact same type of thread last week.

Something something beautiful banality

Something something man altered landscapes

Honestly, while I do like shadowplay and abstractions overall, it's so entry level, like something you get taught in Photo 101 or art history. I think you have to do it really well in order for it to stand out. Make it incredibly perfect and well executed, because there's a thin line between "unique observations of light, shadow and geometry" and "it's a snapshot but since it was shot at the golden hour it should be good".

It can be nice to mess around with if you're out shooting and want to bang out shots to relax, or you're using it to "warm up", but it's not like back when people first started doing this and it was fairly groundbreaking. It's too saturated now.

Typical boring "artistic" "geometric" /p/ crap.
