9. It goes deeper than that
Edited on Wed Jun-01-11 09:43 AM by Stevenmarc
Landscapes just don't hit the primal emotional level that photos of people have the ability to.

There is no way a pretty waterfall is going to compete with a photograph like Nick Ut's Photograph of Kim Phuc. Quite frankly when you've seen one waterfall you pretty much seen them all where the Nick Ut photo put a very real face on the Vietnam war.
