I'm going to have to disagree here. I'd much rather see a bad print
of Robert Capa's D-Day images than a perfect print of rocks and
ferns. A bad print can always be reprinted, sometimes with better
technique or advanced technology, if it's a photo worth
reprinting. If there is nothing there to begin with (admitting
that's very subjective) a good or great print is still not interesting to me.
