Not at all. I myself find shadows and negative space to be integral to taking Android snaps for my SOTD & POTD photos. I know there are some folks here that have gone all out using high end cameras. Some times I get lucky and through tricks of the light, and a bit of photo manipulation using a 15 year old version of JASC Paint Shop Pro I can approximate the great gear photography of our Pros here at TSD.

"Truth, I have learned, differs for everybody. Just as no two people ever see a rainbow in exactly the same place - and yet both most certainly see it, while the person seemingly standing right underneath it does not see it at all - so truth is a question of where one stands, and the direction one is looking in at the time." Iain M. Banks
Like the effort. Wholly disagree with that philosophy. Truth is quantifiable and knowable. Delusion is a choice.
I've heard, "You can have your own opinion, but not your own truth." I enjoy word play as the shading of concepts can be expressed but not fully comprehend from the speaker to the listener. Mathematics is a more pure form of communication and truth telling. But statistics can and do lie. Fumble fingers post via Kyocera / Tapatalk (subject to later editing)
