Not for years, full of tourists, I’m in Skipton at the moment and you can’t move for blue rinses most of the time, it might be quieter in Wensleydale, Middleham castle Richard III place is there.beethamd said:

Heh, I saw that one too, plus a picture where someone had wrapped a sweatshirt around a dogs head.
I did laugh at the project where people took pictures near Buckingham Palace. Some poor chap put a filter on too wide a lens and so every picture was surrounded by a black circular frame.....Now we've all done that....sometimes more than once 😱 , but not many of us have had those pictures published and distributed around the country, even the globe.
....still buy it every week though...😕

Spooky - just added some pics from Wensleydale to my RFF gallery - Finghall near Leyburn. Where the locals call tourists "peskies".

Yup. And didn't Maloney say it "added a certain something" to the pics as well?
Is AP's motto "Striving Toward Mediocrity"?

Also, they did a recent article on buying a computer, which I think was a re-hash from 1991. I mean, hands up who found that useful? Putting forward Linux as an operating system option for someone in the same type of article they feel it necessary to describe the diff between RAM and ROM and 'what is a hard drive?'. I can just see these confused computer novices trying to get to grips with Linux......no mention of the required beard and sandals either.

My favoite cliché came about as an art school slam druing group crits.

How can you say that when we’re only two months away from being surprised by that original and informative “photographing autumn colours”Silva Lining said:

I'm looking forward to 'Winter Landscapes' because I always get grey snow in my pics.
And Jonathan - a fine example of a cliché. I'll bet it was from a 'facilitator' asking you to 'reflect' on your work.

Nice shot FPJ. I'd describe it as having diethyl ether as a solvent.

"Ethereal" is also used to describe some pipe organ stops. Why? Who knows?
As for the comments often put with photos: Art critics seem to be trained to speak a language nobody else can understand. As a retired language teacher, I sometimes find myself wondering what they are talking about with all their obtuse epressions and comparisons.
