It's The Guardian what do you expect. Hack writing, thought admittedly
better hack writing that the average US paper.

Here is an article in The Guardian:

While the article raises some interesting questions, I disagree with
some of the statements the author makes. E.g. he suggests that you
cannot "take really great pictures" on a cruise. And that's because
more than one person can take similar pictures there.
That's total nonsense!
He also implies that ones there is a view, different photographers are
bound to take similar photo (unlike artists, who are bound to paint
different paintings).
If I were to translate that to a different setting: people will not
get "really great pictures" at GFM, because they all see the same
wonderfully looking views.
I wonder what other PDMLers think about this...
