Now that is just silly. If you ever look through a PPA Loan Collection Book, you would see hundreds of images that are all different and show the enormous variety that exists in great photography. Are there some similarities? Sure. But to suggest that those 12 elements make images look alike is a very uninformed position—to which, of course, you are welcome.
This is the first time I saw these 12 elements. I don't know if I could use all of them when taking a photo. Most of the elements seem like a better tool for evaluating a photograph after it is printed. My opinion is they are best used to evaluate my photographs to recognize areas for improvement. Perhaps after some time, they could become automatic.
