√ IA car photography enthusiasts come inside.

that is waht makes "art" so great.. everyone has a different like, and view of things, and gets different inspiration.

So you're wanting to argue with my opinion that IA is not the best place for "inspiration" in photography??? Okie dokie.

So your appreciation for the guys on the photography site..is what give you inspiration. But it may not work for everyone... see how that works! Its like telling someone how to think, or how to feel about something... its impossible!

I don't need any inspiration at all. The OP did. Again, if you want to argue with me that THIS.....IA....is THE place to get inspired by the photography being posted, then I say that you are not well versed on what a good picture is since it seems just about every day someone posts a bad picture and all the nutswingers call it "great". That's a false positive. If you guys want to stick your head in the sand and say it's "art" or "cool to you", then fine. But if you truly want inspiration, then go to where there are better people than you, not worse.

Still my

i figured u would have a cool head and discuss. but you went off and turned into an argument. you suggested looking to other pros on a photo site. which is cool,and does help. but its only gonna get u so far like i said to chad. i didnt say anything about ia is the place for motivation, shitty pic is a shitty pic. and u can tell when a person is putting an effort into being creative. i was saying that you cant base peoples motivation on their skill. just because i say you can get motivation from anything u tell me i dont have a know of a good photo. i cant tell you what you like so how can u tell anyone else? just like any talent or trade it takes time and motivation can come from your peers on ia or some guy on aphoto forum. but that wont make or break your talent.

I don't know why you find it necessary to continue to argue with my opinion, which based on the very next posts right after me confirmed I'm not the only one that feels that way anyway.

Look, all I'm saying is this: If you're an Attorney, do you get to be a "better" Attorney by only trying easy cases or diving into the hard ones? Ever see the ovie "A Few Good Men"? Yes, you may be the best at ambulance chasing, but you'll never be a "serious" top of the line one until you litigate. Know what I mean?

On IA, far too often people like to take pics of their cars right after they wash it or when they find an empty warehouse parking lot. Nothing wrong with that IF the rest of the picture fit properly. As Jason already pointed out, composition, lighting, and clarity go a long way to making a picture appealing. A driveway with trash cans in the open garage background is not proper composition in any book. So let's stop going around saying that it is, let alone using it as any "inspiration" to anyone.

My point is that IA has a nasty habit of people calling some pics "nice" when they truly aren't. Therefore if the OP wants "inspiration", IA is slim pickings. Now, if he wants some to truly push his skill level UP, then he has to go where the photogs are BETTER than he is in order to do that. There are very few true great photogs on IA, and out of those most don't even post their work on a regular basis. There again, another reason why I stand by MY OPINION that for the purposes of inspiration and getting better at photography this is not the optimal site. To read drama and keep up with friends, yes....photography, no. Yes, there are guys on here that truly know their stuff. If you can get lucky and get them to give you some help, then you're good.

This is just my opinion, so no need to try and start any arguments about it. It is what it is. You don't have to agree. That's fine with me. No skin off my back at all.

"AINT" NOBODY ARGUING WITH YOUR OPINION MAN

i just said, you can get INSPIRATION and MOTIVATION which is what this thread is about from anywhere it doesnt have to be on a photo forum. And you said that if you get motivation from anywhere but a photgraphy site than you have no eye for good photography...which is out there. Im sure justin is full aware of photography forums.

When did i say anything about IA being the judge and jury on good pics. I rarely learn anything on ia... like i said you can learn the mechanics on a forum and learn what to do to process a good photo, and to capture it, but you can gain motivation comes from everywhere.

It seems you're both fighting to have the last word in this e-debate. Who will come out victorious?

you should seriously work on reading comprehension and or get an alzheimers evaluation.

you should seriously work on reading comprehension and or get an alzheimers evaluation.

"You" should be capitalized, there should be "/" between and or, and "Alzheimer" should both be capitalized as well as an apostrophe. I guess your High School edumacation was uber cool pimptastic....

Reading comprehension is not an issue with me, Richard. Your continuation to TRY and prove your penis size to me is. Now, just let it go. I told you that you "won" your little e-piss contest. Isn't that what you wanted? Cool, then you got it.

You're not going to change my mind nor my opinion, so give it up already. Go back to post whoring and repping your little girlfriends back and forth.
