I'm actually putting Martin Buday's photographs up here as an example of something I don't like. Here is a guy who recieved an MFA in photography, and his pictures are completely bland. He is the very reason why there are so many people out there that say "well all you have to do is just point and shoot, anyone could become a photographer". I mean this in the negative sense of course. Its like this guy just walks around and anything that comes along he'll just point and shoot, he doesn't have anything dynamic going on in his pictures. Not to say the scenery itself is nice, but he just doesn't DO anything! No angle treatment, no color enhancement, no effort to give a sense of depth of field, it doesn't even seem like he really bothered to properly frame his shot! Its a good example of having a nice camera, and nice lens, website knowledge and overall media education, but just no vision. I don't know, maybe its just me, but this guy is so boring.
