Jerry:

Tell you what, I guarantee I will get better pictures by finding a new
location rather than you standing someplace and trying to find a picture
where there is apparently not one.

This is so much bullshit you can do taking pictures of your feet and some
shadows etc.

In photography content is 90% and to get content you have to move around and
look for it, and the right light, etc.

This is commonsense.

You may be correct in that is what he had in mind.   In a practical sense,
I'll go with my interpretation.

Andy
