We need to talk.........

Seriously.

About a week ago I posted an E-pl1 thread about Mt. Ranier, Washington with about one dozen photo's.

I was really not satisfied with them as each one of those shots had some problems that I didn't know how to fix/prevent. I was hoping you all could help and asked for C&C.

There was a pretty good response, over 40 posts.

Out of those 40 + replys, only two suggested any changes (one about not using trees as a frame in a 4:3 shot, another about polarzier issues).

Everything else was, "hey great shots".

Another guy recently posted some E-pl2 photo's from Rio de Janeiro. He himself said they were awful and that he wasn't happy with the E-pl2.

He was right-they were awful, all over exposed and looked terrible.

He could have used some help on settings, exposure, etc.

Instead, all he got was, "Hey-great shots, thanks for posting"!

Really, this mutual sycophantic culture that you people have here is killing this forum.

It is becoming worthless as a place to get meaningfull feedback.

I know many of you are simply going to think I am an insufferable ingrate but really, someone had to say something.
