Steve - we need a few examples, just so we're clear. Preferably taken from the 'Random' thread for extra controversialness... 
(PS - Diamond Dave is God
)
Hmm.
(PS - Diamond Dave is God
)Examples.
Any official picture of Madonna; Kate Moss; Tony Blair (the last one for different reasons to the first two.). In fact pretty much any 'celebrity'.
Who or what is Diamond Dave?

LQ - dearie me! While I continue to hold you in the the highest regard this reveals a lamentable lacking in your knowledge of poodle rock! Diamond Dave = Dave Lee Roth erstwhile frontman of Van Halen and a very successful solo artist. Get on YouTube and look up Yankee Rose 
Ah.
After my time really, though I know the names if not the faces and nicknames.
I was never sure why an American rock person would take most of the name of a British vinyl spinner but each to his own I suppose. (Actually vinyl spinner may be wrong since it always seemed to me that most of the time DLT and his comrades were talking inanely and hosting silly quizzes. What a way to spend a licence fee)
As for examples... how about this: 2009 Landscape photo of the year FFS
Look at number 5 - Rannoch Moor. HDR has ruined a perfectly good photo... the clue is in the word LANDSCAPE not software! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8314105.stm
DLR!

The winner of the Phone category looks almost honest. Look at number 5 - Rannoch Moor. HDR has ruined a perfectly good photo... the clue is in the word LANDSCAPE not software! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8314105.stm
DLR!
Of course it says something, I suppose, that there is a phone category ....

Though I do seem to recall their 'hit' being hard driving and what became known, generically, as 'in your face'. A bit like a bee-hive hair-do as exhibited by some members of the female species from time to time. Chicago (Transit Authority as they were originally named) started out the same way but seemed to veer into laboured pretentiousness.
