No right or wrong in the creative aspects of the visual arts, Robert.
Would be interested to see some of your photos.
No right or wrong, eh Graeme?
Ok, how about there is talent or no talent? Great or rubbish, perhaps? Definitions abound, of course, so how do we decide what hangs in the Louvre? Will it accept your child's wonderful finger painting? Probably not, but why not? Or could we apply the monetary test; open an exhibition and see what sells. It's quite a powerful method, but not foolproof (think Van Gogh). Perhaps it's a combination of factors with technique playing an important part. Is that "right"?
But then there's the bit about seeing some of his photos. How many times have we read this type of comment in reply to someone having the sheer audacity to demand standards or the like. Yeah, I bet your snaps are a real laugh, Robert. Do these demanders complain about that rotten portrait in the Louvre and then come back the next day with their masterpiece they've knocked up that night? As if you have to do better as a license to critique.
I think we see Robert's "right" or "wrong" as a shortcut or summary of multiple factors which contribute to success or otherwise. (Yes, what is success....).
