wow, some of the pictures here are awesome BUT not posting what camera/linses were used for taking these pics is like posting a hand without reads and stack sizes.

Wrong. Worrying about what camera or lens took a picture is like worrying about the brand of paint used in a painting.

Oh come on, it's standard to post that info.

I like the Doyle image a lot, because you can tell it's Doyle right away, you can tell he's won, it's wsop and the other guy is knock the felt as if to say nice hand. It's just ashame he wasn't wearing a wsop bracelet.

Quick crop to better focus the image:

This is the type of post I can't stand, and I see it all the time also.

Is it merely the "lack of a point" that you don't understand? Because the photograph is black and white? Because you believe there's a message here you may or may not disagree with? You don't like hats? Portraiture bores you?

I'm pretty open to criticisms of my work, and I'm happy to discuss any of it with you. But I'm going to need a little more to work with.

Also, can you give examples of where else you see this photograph?

I like it. I find it very hard to photograph people and you did a very good job.

I love photo's like these. Yes they're common, but that's because part of the appeal is the humanity. The man has this amazing face and is set against this urban environment. you just receive these strong undertones of despair and individuality.

At least that's why I diggs 'em yo.

I love the second from the top. Very nice.

(There were a BUNCH of others I liked in this thread too, but I'm going to bed. Just quickly, the one with the dog jumping into the lake, whoever's that was, well done.)

Primarily because there is a huge contingent of photography geeks who care more about the equipment then they do about the images. They spend a lot of time taking pictures of focus charts to see how sharp their lenses are instead of taking beautiful pictures.
