Catching up on past episodes of The Grid with Scott Kelby (seen Wednesdays at 4:00 PM EDT on Kelby TV, an Internet channel). I liked his list of Five Things That Should Never Be in Your Photography Portfolio, likening these things to designing graphics using Comic Sans fonts:
1. Cats
2. Homeless People
3. Dead trees and/or tree stumps
4. Anything or anyone on railroad tracks
5. Flowers
Post them on Facebook, just don't put them in your professional portfolio. I have to agree,

Just out of curiosity, why not flowers? What if they are macro/abstract shots?
Because they are common. But he also said an exception can be made with the caveat that any flower shots be OUTSTANDING. Now, I do not say that facetiously, but let's face it, the only way you will get that is with macro, IMO. Otherwise . . . Meh, it's a pretty flower.
Cleavage is still O.K., right?
Only in the front, Aaron.
