Perhaps we need to distinguish between classical posed portraiture and candid portraiture.* There is a remarkable difference.* Benji's work is obviously posed portraiture.* Some people love it, some prefer candid portraiture for it's relaxed, "comfortable" look.
I'm quite happy to see these posts in the main area because I enjoy learning the "rules".* While my work with people is clearly candid portraiture, knowing the classic "rules" is still helpfull.* Mind you, it doesn't mean I am going to strive to follow them all at all times. I see them more as friendly suggestions than rules per se.
Maybe a good idea is to move these type posts into the tutorial section
after they have become inactive so that they are easier for people to find later.
