Best Photo In The World Ever!

[Peter Parka]

Personally I don't see what's so great about it, looks quite shitty and boring to me, was hoping someone else here could shed some light onto why it is so great that it has just been sold for $4.3 million.

Maybe because how parallel the sky, river, and sidewalk are?
I have no clue, but I thought that was cool.

 

[Codrus]

Meh, is all I can say about that photo.

I'm sure it's something to do with perpective and lines that makes it what it is. But I think it's rubbish.

It's amazing how a lot of b.s. and waffle can fool people into paying stupid money for distinctly average pieces of work.

Plus, he photoshopped it to remove bits he didn't like - read the lot notes:

As he once elaborated, "there is a particular place with a view over the Rhine which has somehow always fascinated me, but it didn't suffice for a picture as it basically constituted only part of a picture. I carried this idea for a picture around with me for a year and a half and thought about whether I ought perhaps to change my viewpoint ... In the end I decided to digitalise the pictures and leave out the elements that bothered me"

Sorry Darrell, after you pay Apple royalties for using their iPhone you will have $0.0000000000000000000000000001 cents left
