I don't search them out trust me they are usually seen in the form of avatars and when I go into people's profiles to give comments or just look at their work only reason why I see half the nudity I see here is like that it's just casual I leave the comment I want on the picture I like in their port and I move on

I always find these threads amusing as it shows that some experienced photographer wants to laud their experience over the less fortunates.

Personally I never tire of cliche images as it shows that an emerging or fledgling photographer (Myself included) is trying to emulate images that inspire them.

The ability to be original comes once you have a comfort level with your ability to replicate images. The next step being of course to "create".

I personally have 2 images of models sitting on toilets, so this makes me a prime offender.
Do I care - heck no!
But then photography is my hobby not my job.

An obsession with sex-crazed nuns is a tough habit to break.

Well considering that there has never been a theme/shot that hasn't been done in some way than I assume you will be selling your gear on Ebay soon?

Sunsets are so cliche. If I see or shoot another one I'm gonna puke.  LOL

Actually, IMO photo concepts are only cliches if they are done badly or not improved on, lack of originality.

Good thread idea. "Cliches I never want to see again!" as written in the 1970s.

- Models dressed up like they're in the 1800s
- Apple on head
- Model in tennis garb, lifting up her dress so you can see her bum
