As I am, or at least one of my images is the subject of this very lively discussion, I feel as though I should add something to it, but after first writing a long reply, I have now decided to keep out of it, other than to say in my defence, that when I made the image as referred to in one of the links above, that I did so late at night and in a relatively dark room as it had become and without me noticing. It is not until I now look at the image in the cold light of day, that I realise just how dark it really is, so perhaps I will have another go at it and repost it at some point, although I must admit that I do like it as is and all the elements within it, it was never meant to be a pretty picture.
I always thought that controversial work, or at least work that causes much discussion and disagreement was a good thing, it gets your work noticed and I do seem to occasionally have that effect here on Lula, getting comments about my work ranging from 'That is the worst image I have ever seen' - yes Peter, I have not forgotten and still have sleepless nights thinking about that.., through to WOW!, amazing and sublime etc.
Kirby, I don't think Slobodan meant any offence by what he did and certainly no offence was taken by me, but yes I agree it might have been a bit of a low blow for someone other than myself, who has now become quite used to the occasional kick in the shins on this forum.
Pax vobiscum
