While that word has been overused for a long time.... There are some interesting thoughts in this article:- Linkie

Pay Attention To Truth And Light
To Photograph Is To Edit Reality
Rush, Or Slow Down, Be Stable, Or Unstable

No One Technique Will End Civilisation Ă¢€“ Many photographers have a pet hate, be it iPhoneography, HDR, Tilt-Shift, or Retro-ism. Having dislikes can be useful because it clarifies our path and reinforces the choices we make in creating our own style. But, investing too much in hating something, or recruiting followers to your hate-cause is misspent emotion. And, all too often these hates are a way of rationalising our own fears or lack of understanding.

Decide what you like but invest your emotional energy into your craft. Be open, because even techniques we dislike, or donĂ¢€™t understand can be used to create art.
