I think there is good and bad.

Bad = mine. Not very artistic. I find taking photographs relaxing.

Good = davemac. His photos are amazing. Seen the one of butterfly?

Oh and drinking can be a form of art...i suppose

Yes you're right, it's up to the individual's taste, but having said that I can't believe you don't like my wonderful Klimt! I think you may need to look at a bit more of his work! (I really am only joking but I absolutely do love his art)! His exhibition in Liverpool moved me to tears and I plan to go to Vienna to see most of the rest of his exhibited stuff.

I visited that exhibition in Liverpool but can't say it moved me at all. The trouble with Klimt, like Monet, is that he has become very over-exposed.

To get back on thread, thought I'd share the work of a young photographer with local connections. Born in France, her mother is Ossy born and bred - Lauren grew up in Clitheroe from the age of 10 and got her BA in photography at Leeds University a couple of years ago. This is her Flicka work but if you Google her you can find a lot more -particularly her short film work on Vimeo.com as well as her own blog.

It is artistic photography!:)

Edit - fixed the link now - Neil

Thanks Neil!! You are a star as always.:)

I have unfortunately never seen any of his work in exposition, only photos.

I don't believe he suffers from over-exposure -apart from "The Kiss" most would not recognise his work...

I find it rich and it draws you in -there are also some excellent line drawngs I've seen, very different.
