For anyone who might unfamiliar with the topic, the British author
Bulwer-Lytton is credited with the worst opening line of any novel. The
infamous "It was a dark and stormy night; ...".
I think the following quote by photo critic A. D. Coleman is a worth
entry for the contest.
"So, at the risk of oversimplifying an extremely complex proposition,
these pictures are about the fact that photography allows you to make
images of things that- by the thoughtful application of techniques and
perceptual tendencies peculiar to photography- can suggest something
quite different from what lay before the lens, can be about something
else entirely."
