CAN YOU SAY "CLICHE "

Awaiting the Green Flash at Patrick's Point (I think)

One of my professor's used to use the term "cliche" frequently in his critiques. He was trying to get us students to discover, develop and to incorporate our own aesthetics in our work. Of course, most of us were still developing the skills that would/could lead to our own unique style, so the professor was afforded many an opportunity to use his favorite term.

I assert that we as artists are not always required to create images that are completely unique. Sometimes it is just fun to take a photograph of the obvious especially when the opportunity is presented. That is what this image is about. I will not submit it to a juried show, nonetheless, I sort of like it.
