Wedding photographers seem to be getting into them.
Are they called camera holsters or something. you can clip 2 bodies to the bras. Most go over the shoulders and across the chest.

But you t *** a guest in the head with a long lens as you squeeze between tables.

heres one worn by Fly TVR :lol::clap::lol::razz:

Can you hear the watch chimes? Can you?

Or like this from Camera King. Camera in the front and a small piglet can go in the back.

Ahhh, gearwhore courtship display devices! Like a peacock but with more red rings!
 
-Pictures that has been through Instagram filter, or any "arty" filter
-Pictures that has fake bokeh

seriously, it's a blurry/out of focus/bad lighting/just plain bad picture, it's not a keeper. putting a fake filter isn't going to make it any better.
 
I don't think fake 'tilt shift' has been mentioned yet, so maybe that fad is calming down now, good to see HDR still going strong though!

Anyhow...

- Automotive rig shots
- Selective colouring
- That little Amazon.jp box character doing something 'amusing'
- 600mm f4 frozen head-on motorsport shots - yes, you have a very, very expensive lens, I get it, now how about doing something creative.

So many anti-child pic people!?? You know they're called portraits, right? That's a bit like saying "I hate pictures of old people"!

"I hate pictures of old people"! in street style caught shopping, on a park bench, playing chess in Central Park

''oh, the face is so lined with character''

NO - they're just fekking OLD.!.....:bang:
 
Ha, see I like all kinds of portraiture. It does really depend on the subject, they can be boring no matter the age.

I just thought of another one I hate, and I'm guilty of too: Random gull in flight .. nothing else, just a gull ... they are NOT interesting birds, they're pests. Why not just go take pictures of a rat??
 
Interesting Thread......I think really we are in a state of over saturation of digital photos on the internet, I guess its part of the natural of evolution of the camera. Photography is fun for all, but I really think that 99.99% should stay on the camera/phone/computer but I know that's not going happen. I generally try not to really seriously look at photos on the internet unless its a known photographer or if I need some reason for technical help, like comparing different lens etc. And I must admit, that I am guilty of looking on forums too much! And again I am part of it all with my website, but people have a choice to look at it.......but then again I think I am unique like millions others here on the internet. Gets to be too much and I just do my own thing in my part world. Best thing I like to do is sit down with coffee/book and really look at photographs!
 
Photos of Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Pictures of Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Oh and Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my least favorite types of images
 
Images of homeless people - usually B&W, shot from a distance or from the hip, like a chicken chit ... then plastered with vignetting, trying to make it all profound. I always ask people who post up these types did they give the poor guy/girl some money before taking liberty?
 
I like B&W ... just hate how it's used at times for added drama
 
PMN said:
Surely that's all part of getting an image across how you want? If you're after a dramatic look and B&W helps give it then why not use it?

See my previous posts though, like the homeless photo thing - turning it B&W is just an excuse to call it 'arty' - considering the subject matter, I just really don't like the way it is used in that instance.

I love Mutoids.

Anything that looks like it should be in Mad Max... Love it all.

Yeah, always one of the first places I head for. They light their stuff pretty well as well and have loads of smoke so you can get some good, weird, atmospheric shots, and they have flame and helicopters and missiles and women in leather with flame throwers and...I'm just going to lie down for a bit now.
 
1. HDR
2. Milky water.
3. Lame out of focus or badly composed photos converted to black and white and overlaid with a 'distressed' texture because 'this is art'.
4. Overcooked HDR's of mens genitals in milky water.

Just looked at your flickr and u have a 2sec milky water shot on the first page!:)
 
there's a road in Ireland that always ends up multiple times in the Landscape Photographer of the Year book. If you want to get in the book pop over and take a shot of it, youll have a shoe in.

The Brisons down in Cornwall which is really annoying as half a mile along the cliffs there is a far better view of the area! People just get out the car, take a snap, get back in the car and drive off.

Crap street shots that say nothing other than you took a sharp picture of someone walking down the street / some tramp in a doorway.

I am sure Robert took the comment in good fun, if not I would like to think he is man enough to speak up for himself. But for your benefit I will explain something. As everybody was revealing what pictures they were sick of seeing, I thought I would see what genre Robert was into and post that up as my pet hate :thumbs: So yes I was a little surprised that the search came up with nothing, which is why I answered as I did, and at the end of the day really has nothing to do with you. As for being personal about Robert`s work :thinking: I have not seen any of it yet :D You seem to enjoy going around in threads trying to incite arguements, it wont work with me mate I get up far to early in the morning to be caught out ;)

You always seem to feel the need to have the last word David. Sometimes it is better just to leave.
 
You're probably right, yeah.
 
I meant leave the thread, not the forum..............:)

Just wanted to clear that up.No misunderstandings.
 
Oh I'm leaving neither. I'm leaving him alone :).. that's what I meant.

People trying to sell expensive camera gear and advertising the goods by taking utterly crap phone pics of them.

What is the bloody point?
 
We're all guilty of the inability to walk away from a scrap on here ;)

Nayhow: pictures of food...outside of cookbooks.
Especially when I'm hungry! And I am guilty of doing it myself.

In fact, i shoot a lot of the things I say i hate ... but hey .. .

The Buachille Etive Mor taken from that location. There must be a queue of photographers waiting to put their tripod in exactly the same spot. I can almost forgive new photographers for it but why do magazine editors put it on the cover of their magazines at least once a year?

All the articles inside are re-written at least once a year - why not do the same with the cover shot? ;)
