Dan Gould Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 I don't know what the message is of Rosenstein, or of Trump peering thru blinds. "Pecker leaking" is obviously scatological over political, IMHO. Jim's posting of the Time cover, which was a constructed photo and had a clear political message, should not have been allowed. With all due respect and affection, the Brits who post in this thread seem to have an ongoing problem following the no politics rule.

Brad Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 I think anything that references our political situation in anyway whatsoever should be off limits; we get assaulted with it 24 hours a day. This forum should be a safe haven from our daily sturm und drang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Seriously, I put those up because I thought they were great photographs, period. Same thing with the Melania Trump I just put up. Great photograph. Are we so distraught politically that we can't enjoy a great photograph? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coda Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 I've basically stopped posting because of the political pictures in this thread. It is also why I've not donated to the forum. This community does not make all members welcome. BTW, the pictures are not of a good quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the update. I look at this thread infrequently, so I didn't realize what's gone on. I deleted my emoji since it no longer made sense.

Remember it is various styles of jazz in particular (that are being discussed here on not so frequent occasions) that THRIVE on these intentional extremes of emotion. No safe heaven in the true, artistic sense of the term, then ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 Sturm und drang, as the article you quoted Steve, can also mean storm and stress and I think this country is going through that. However, I understand your point. Although some of these photos may be good photography, they are political in nature. You cannot divorce the two. It's like being a little bit pregnant; you either are or you aren't. There's no halfway. The rules are enforced to the fullest or they aren't. There should ne no halfway.

jlhoots Posted October 8, 2018 Report Share Posted October 8, 2018 It's fine to enforce the rules if we know what they are. I once posted a photograph by a "fine arts" photographer (whatever that may be) taken during a Dakota Access Pipe Line demonstration (a bad word I presume). It's a powerful image. I'll try to go back & see if it has been deleted. I suppose Picasso's Guernica would be banned here or is it just "current" politics. BTW my DAPL photo is still there. Maybe the designation DAPL didn't register!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
