Objectivity and rigor are SOVL because it is literally impossible for traces of humanity not to show through it all, thus magnifying the impact of subjective emotional and spiritual experience. When else do you realize how treasured the light is, than when it's dark and the moon is hidden by a passing cloud?

On the other hand, nothing is more soulless than a machine running a whimsicality and impulsiveness routine trying too hard to appear human

Nothing is Objective. This isn't possible, these industrial landscapes look cartoonish AF. Light is evil tho. Billions of years evolutionary slaughter doesn't worth it. Sun is a minion of death.

Wrong, Heinrich Kühn is pure SOVl

lack of humanity.

Probably on account of your soul being damned so you'll rise as a vampire instead of returning to the earth.

>>4158560
It is self explanatory. Just being more careful does not stop humans from being human.

Emotions are like words. If you don't also have them, you'll never distinguish them from random noise unless someone hits you across the head with them in the most blatant, high-energy way possible while wildly gesturing and shouting to make sure the point is made.

Every man has an eternal soul. Schopenhauer was sage not a depressive you dumb bitch.

I just don't like their straight and sharp shooting approach. It becomes boring very quickly. There should be some technical improvisation with repetition. Take for example Bechers >>4158558 and August Sander >>4158569 their subject matter is changing with time their shooting techniques doesn't move at all, it is lile Reinforced Cement Concrete. Doesn't feel intuitive at all.

It may have become boring for you but it's far from soulless. Knowing Germany's history makes these photos even more authentic.
They are what Germany is (soon was) about.
To the cultured eye they tell stories or, in the case of Mr. and Mrs. Becher, are simply beautiful because they are peak geometric photography.

It is soulless due to less subjective camera and less intuition.

Think before you use big words and insults next time.
You obviously are not in the position to do that.

No, do the work yourself. If you aren't interested in the photos, don't waste time learning about them, but that doesn't make them shit or soulless. People vary widely as does the idea of 'SOVL'

Hmm so, it is soulless in some regards then.

Above you're taking a subjective position and now you're taking an objective position
