The beauty of a failure.

I wonder whether this quote also applies to 3d printing 🙂

With all due respect to Cartier-Bresson, I couldn’t disagree more. When I was doing commercial work, there were some images in my portfolio, taken when I was just starting out twenty years earlier, that I still felt proud of.
I’ve also seen the later work of acclaimed masters that I didn’t think was nearly as good as photographs done decades before.
Looking at photographs is a personal matter. I advise to read the book of John Szarkowski, Looking at Photographs or Stephen Shore’s ‘The Nature of Photographs’. The criteria to estimate pictures are quite ‘volatile’. Experts -especially those who are working in art schools, are mostly quite unreloable, when it comes to ‘judge’ photography. That’s about the only conclusion I’m sure of.
