Favorite Photo Cliches...

Ever look at a photo and say to yourself "oh, that's sooooo cliche..."? I have. But there are those photos that are cliche that I still love. What kind of photo cliches are you all suckers for? I'm a sucker for the "fast moving water" photo cliche...

Ah, fast water and sunsets. I'm a sucker for sunsets.

Great water shot. I'm a sucker for patterns and sunrises. Here's one of the latter from this morning.

Cows. I am a sucker for cows. Mooooooo!

Flowers, flowers, and more flowers!

These are great threads! Thank you! I found 2 - I'm a "flag" person. ;)

Yep - after I typed that I decided to add the flag one I shot yesterday. :D

I say, let's <i>really</i> make this a photo cliche post!

Let's all post images of the cliches underneath the cliches that have been posted. In other words, flags under Liz's post, waterfalls under Five's post, flowers under my post, sunsets under Chunks post, animals under Almo's, etc. Let's see how FAR we can take the cliches!

I'll lead off...

btw, sorry to hijack your post, hope you don't mind! :)

Ah, more sunsets :)

Thanks Jared. This was taken last fall. Not a new image for PR, it was in the critique forum a while back.
