Not entirely sure of the connection between photoshop and buggery - please elucidate. Perhaps you need to spend a little more time with your art teacher - assuming you have one. Meanwhile, perhaps you could refrain from posting images of such mind-boggling numbness such as this -

Or the contrived rubbish that hit my screen when I clicked on this -

Thank you.

Relax 'stone. You posted a 'photo' on the Megalithic Paintings topic so are off topic and offside to begin with. As for the photo itself, it is crap. An accident with the 'smudge' tool.
I much prefer the Ken Kozmik image links you kindly shared with us. And the many other photos and fieldnotes he has contributed to TMA.
As for this:

Why do you say such things? What's your fucking problem?

My my.. you're an easily fired up wee chap aren't you?
Yes, you are right. They are just shitty snaps. But I'm not holding them up as 'brilliant' art.
Why would I need an art teacher to show me how to use the twirl filter in Photoshop?
Nothing against Thelma, who I like but I am allowed an opinion you know Littlestone.
As for contrived... maybe you need to spend more time with your dictionary.

Sure you have every right to like or dislike an image, though perhaps a comment along the lines of, "Not for me I'm afraid, seems to be a bit of photoshop -----" (filling in the blank with a word that has some meaning and offering a more constructive criticism). Buggery doesn't mean anything in this context.
I think one of the reasons this thread was set up was to discuss paintings on the megalithic theme in a wider context - let's do that, not just fire off one-word broadsides when we don't like something.

Sorry to disagree 'stone but I thought "That's just a bit of photoshop buggery!" was just a bit of forum banter. It did not deserve your torrent of personal abuse.
