That photo is so bad. What is it supposed to highlight? There are three objects shown and none seems to be the focus of the picture. It's also not a composition that makes much sense. I'm not even a photographer, never learned much about that either. Man, this really annoys me way more than it should. But it's just so bad.

I disagree. The pointlessness creates a liminal space.

OK, what pics do you have to post to improve the community then? Nobody said this c/ has to be artsy.

You can critique something that is needlessly bad. Like, take ten steps and take a clear picture without that damn car and building.

You're not wrong. Part is I liked the perspective and where I was standing for a picture.

I believe he was trying to create some scale

I don't think you know the difference between a critique and just being negative. Your comments are needlessly rude.
