Hello Ruddy,
In response to your post, I said that I did not want to offend anybody. The
second point is that I have never posted anything for you to see so you
can't critique my work. Shameful though that is, the fact that I have never
posted anything, it's certainly not banal or "cemetery", my work is
documentary here in China, and China is always exciting. Even though I could
respond to your thread, I don?t want to waste the time, enough of these
bitter remarks lets move on. For the record I have a BA in photography from
the university of Derbyshire in England, so if I see photographs in terms of
thier content it is understandable!
Regards,
Marvin.

Banal -- Marvin
Wow
You are definitely not at that place where you can describe someone's
work as banal
Not Mr. cemetary himself, now how banal was that stuff when you posted
it.
Lets be civil about this thread, because it is an important one.
I think it IS up to Marc to find the middle ground. All the stuff we
can say can only sit second to what he thinks this list should lend
itself to.
I think it is then left up to us, to make the decision like Carlos, to
either stay or not.
Lets leave personal feelings about another person's work out of this
thread.
