Trophies

“There are two ways to obtain a trophy; one is to perform a notable act worthy of reward, and the other is to go to the trophy store. The increased popularity of photography, and especially photography of natural subjects, has indeed given rise to a thriving industry of “trophy stores”; that is, products and services specializing in making sure you go home with great images, guaranteed to impress, requiring some investment of time, money and effort, but not necessarily imagination, intellect, emotion or originality.”
