How would one capture the subjects better? Obviously candid so I had to take what I could get.

Yeah... I don't think that's imitation. More like making a joke of your douchebaggery.

no, it's a good photo, for real- you are being assuaulted by retards, flinging poo and making monkey noises.

you did a good job. that is publishable, saleable, sell-able, interesting, polished and artistically worthwhile.

if i took that, i would feel my life had meaning, even if i only got $100 and had no bennies.

i know this sounds weird, but i think if you cropped a little off the the top it might be a little more pleasing to the eye.

otherwise nice shot.>>190642

You miss the point of photography. They're symbolic, indicative of larger societal patterns and issues. In both those images, a few archetypal American traits- affluence, laziness, domesticity, and in the case of the car one, bland design- are shown at their absolute, iconic nadir.

Now, who knows? Maybe the people involved suffer from some neurological condition or fatigue syndrome and have good reasons for it. But that doesn't matter for the image: they strike a certain symbolic nerve, like the N.V.A. soldier being executed, the Iwo Jima flag picture, or Dorothea Lange's picture of the downcast mother. Both those, after all, were extreme cases and distorted the whole truth, or were interpreted in a way that did. Then there's others- Eisenstaedt's Time Square VJ kiss picture, for instance- that are accurate fully and do the same sort of thing: distilling everything down to one two-dimensional image in a rectangular frame.
