08 Oct 09 - As always, Have fun and post away, but let's kind of keep on subject with the Cliche photo's. I see a lot that just seem not so Cliche!
Cliche meaning - element of an artistic work which has been overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect, rendering it a stereotype, especially when at some earlier time it was considered meaningful or novel.

About That Is So Cliche!

"element of an artistic work which has been overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect, rendering it a stereotype, especially when at some earlier time it was considered meaningful or novel."

Any photo that represents a popular cliche, or perhaps concepts or shots that you would consider cliche that you know you've seen before.

You name it, you know you've seen at least one of these types of shots in every photostream:
-The rainbow color pencil shot,
-The macro eye shot,
-The looking down at your shoes shot,
-The sugarlips shot,
-The *make a heart with your hands* shot.
-The self-portrait in a mirror shot

It's open to interpretation.
