I read a quote by Catherine Opie today, whom I know nothing about, in which she says sunrise and sunset are the biggest cliches in photography. That may or may not be true, but they’re still compelling to me. Every sunset is different. The statement is a bit like saying photographs of people are cliches because there are so many photographs of people.

I think sometimes that I’m tired of photographs of birds and flowers, and then I see one that is really well executed and think, never mind. It’s not the abundance, it’s the quality that matters. And most of us are on a journey to improve the quality.
