Nah, blurry for me too. It's taken me a long time (and I still struggle) to recognize not everyone is a photographer, so they don't understand why we vote the way we do. Most aren't going to recognize the faults in a photo, or what it's lacking. Most are completely satisfied with all that motion blur.

I'd imagine it's the same in a converse situation for us. I can imagine either of us heading into another skilled area and declaring "I like that one because of [whatever reason]." Does that make it right, or equally wrong? I don't know.

I've made attempts in a few of the polls to explain why I vote the way I do, and take the time to break down my decision process. Though I did this in an attempt to help others further their understanding, I don't know that it was seen as anything but snobby arrogance.
