Flowers Anonymous
Why do people who buy DSLRs immediately run out and take pictures of flowers? There is nothing more boring or useless than a picture of a flower against a blurry background. Yet people spend gobs of effort on this. People who don't garden and don't care what the flowers are called or where they came from will use pocket scissors to carefully trim the rough edges off somebody else's flower just so they can point and shoot and somehow feel creative, useful, and important.

I took this picture of some stupid damn flower today. What does /p/ think?

Mi madre asked me to take pictures of flowers in her backyard. I felt scathingly Cliché after doing so, but I was also just fucking around w/ my new tamron 90mm.

Cliché flower is Cliché

I agree OP. Though, I generally try to stay away from the stereotypical photos. I mean, doing the same shit over and over again isn't going to make you successful. It's doing something that is different from everyone else that will but that should be obvious.

Flowers are pretty. I don't try to prove anything by taking pictures of junkyards and urban decay. While flowers may not be prize worthy pictures, they are nice to look at.

Because taking "good" flower pics with P&S tends to be impossible but with the "macro" kit lenses they are suddenly easy to do.

Also I hate flower shots.
