Thoughts on composition, learning from Ansel Adams

[Tin Can]

I have made many mistakes I regret.

We seldom get a second chance and most events are random.

When I meet Him, I will ask, 'Why?'

So, here's the yelling at the end of my life:

"Oh my gods, why did you leave me?

I always paid all bills, (Halo-)Cortana, to keep covers in all villages and cities I worked.

I never used genetically engineered personal enhancement viruses.

I always terminated pregnancies always when there was a risk of genetically faulty reproduction.

I am proud to bear a charmed existence as human vegetable.

I always let ASMET (Apple Siri Midterm Election Toolkit) decide.

I always voted Google Tensor Flow for World President

I never made an effort to achieve the privileges of the ruling Silicon Boddey class e.g. to go on vacation, to claim continuing education, to go to the pictures or a restaurant.

I always allowed (Facebook default setting) artificial minds to learn behaving like me from analyzing my utterings and solve my social problems by acting on my own behalf.

I always had full self-driving software on all vehicles, even on the three wheelers of my children

OK: I must confess that I hiked around with a tripod in a protected natural landscape where only AI-driven and nuclear fueled Google cars are allowed, taking an unnetworked large format camera with me that can't tell our authority in real time wether my artistic intention would be correct or not, never loading scanned negatives into the almighty cloud with its glorious analysis intelligence that registers me instantly as a potential lateral thinking threat ..."

Him or HER?

Well, if they are omnipotent and all powerful, it probably doesn't matter. But, for the christians, God was male, Jesus was male and the Holy Ghost was..., Slimer?

[Tin Can]

Him or HER?

Point taken.

Them!

How about posting a couple more images of your style to look at?

Steve: I was a young man the last time someone said I had style. She's an old lady today. I have loads of picture on my flickr page link below. Maybe you can tell me what style I have today. Thanks.

Him or HER?

Well, if God is always right, kinda sounds like a woman...

What an analysis. I don't think my photo is that deep, just admired the sky. So here's a vertical you suggested.

IMHO analysis is not about what you think or thought at the moment you triggered the shutter or a few instances before.

Analysis is a process determined by sensuous and categorical intuition ("sinnliche und kategoriale Anschauung", Edmund Husserl: Logical Investigations).

So, it's something in the consciousness of the spectator. To make it short: it's about my thinking of a thing.

I think we need Rum, this is getting deep!

MAybe this in inconsistent with your point. But it reminds me of this man Jack who got a new girlfriend. With her on his arm, he met with his best friend Sam and asked him what he thought of her.

Sam retorted, "She's your girlfriend. What do you think of her?"

Jack responded, "It doesn't matter what I think of her. It;s only important to me what you think of her."

Ouch!
