Impressive Dynamic Colors (Superficial/Artificial) vs Washed Out Faded Colors (Originality/Natural)

Well as I see it, everything started going downhill when you introduced the phrase, "Small minded." That in my view is immature. And indicative of a "Small Mind." And you used it repeatedly. At that point, I'm sorry but, "All bets are off."

You claimed to be looking to have a discussion, which you also claim was met by more "terse dismissive" comments. If you look back (which I know you won't do, I wouldn't either) I think you would be hard pressed to find any "Terse" comments by myself. Terse means "Sparing in the use of words. Abrupt." I hardly think I was sparing. I tend to get quite verbose. And as far as dismissive, Like I said, go back and read. I believe I stated my "personal" opinion.

And I also mentioned that there are a lot of "AMAZING" images out there. And there IS some great Post Processing work being done. I also stated that "It is not for me." How can you argue with that.

I would never argue with ones personal taste. Yes I can see the amazing colors and contrast, and the amazing effort that may have gone it to it, but again, I can just say, "It's not for me."

And all you can say is, "You are simple minded." Well actually how simple minded and immature of ME to continue harping on this one small little thing. Yes I admit that I am acting in an immature fashion right now.

I have no problem with personal opinion. And when those opinions differ from mine, I also have no problem with that either. But when someone resorts to blatant name calling, like you have my friend, I have many problems with that. And you have presented yourself to me as an absolute ZERO.

So just to recap, I have no problem with anything else that was said. IT WAS THE "SMALL MINDED" STATEMENTS THAT WERE TRULY OFFENSIVE!!!
