An analysis of LOSER/LIAR Ryan Dyar’s fake interview in Aperture Academy, Part two.

LoserPhotographers.com Feature: An analysis of LOSER/LIAR Ryan Dyar’s fake interview in Aperture Academy, Part one.

(See Part one here)

  Ryan Dyar is a good target for a Loserphotographers.com analysis. A drug addict who lives with his well-to-do parents in Battle Ground, Ryan Dyar has spent both a lot of time and a lot of his parent’s money trying to turn himself into a “professional landscape photographer”. He had an “interview” on the bogus Aperture Academy website, which seems to be obsessed with “interviewing” as many losers & frauds as it possibly can. Part one of a multi-part series. Quotes and our analysis follows:

“The biggest challenge for me was learning patience, learning to take my time. I believe that patience is key in almost every aspect of landscape photography.”

Whatever. These losers love waxing poetic about their “philosophies” in these fake interviews they are constantly arranging.

“While hiking or scouting a location, it’s best to take things in slowly, get acquainted with the area. If you hurry to just get there and grab the first composition you find, you may miss something just around the corner."

Marc Adamus or some other photographer has already done the “scouting” (doesn’t that sound so legitimate!) for these bozos. They just have to show up, 5D Mark II and 16-35mm Mk II in hand, the other hand on their member, eager to find those tripod holes and create their very own Exact Copy of Someone Else’s Photo.

“The same goes for processing your images. Slow down and take the time to pay attention to the details.”

Or you could just let Photomatrix Pro do the “paying attention”. By the time these turkeys are done, the images always look like they just left the Photomatrix HDR hangar. 

“It may take an extra  10 minutes, but if you spend the time finely masking your exposure blends you can avoid those nasty halos and harsh transitions.”

Do real photographers talk about “exposure blends” and “halos” and all that nonsense? No! With the amazing dynamic range of digital cameras, there is rarely a need to indulge in any of this nonsense, yet these lame morons are constantly obsessing about exposure blending, HDR, and other crap that has nothing to do with good photography.

“Things like this are what make an image stand out from crowd.”

Pure bullshit. There are hundreds of Ryan Dyar type idiots on Photo.net and Flickr. Taking these kinds of images and messing with them in post is the best way to never be noticed.

“Mountains are my favorite subjects, and though the western US & Canada have some stunning ranges, I’d have to choose the Himalayas in late summer/early fall.”

Ryan Dyar probably just made this up. Has he ever been to the Himalayas in “late summer/early”? Probably not. Yet this pot-smoking LOSER is making it sound like he has extensively travelled the world’s mountain ranges and formed an informed opinion about all the mountains on Earth.

“Fall in Patagonia is a very close second”

Here we go again. We guarantee you that Ryan Dyar has never seen Patagonia, much less in the fall time. 

“I actually have plans to spend some time in the Himalayas later this year”

We would normally call bullshit on this claim, but Ryan Dyar does have well-to-do parents, so if he does go there, he will be paid in full by daddy. We urge him to sample the local “herbs” while he’s in the Himalayas, of course (laughter).

Part Three coming soon; stay tuned!

These lies, fraudulent boasts, and misrepresentations are merely a fraction of the many to be found in anything Ryan Dyar writes. Beware of Ryan Dyar or any of his friends. He is a LOSER who lives with his parents and indulges in illegal drugs. This is NOT the sort of person you should be buying anything from!

Loserphotographers.com: A quick look at the LOSER Luke Austin

A quick look at the LOSER Luke Austin.


Luke Austin, a all-around LOSER and MORON, left a sarcastic comment on our “An Analysis of LOSER/LIAR Ryan Dyar’s “about me”” article on the Loserphotographers.com blog. We figured that after this little nugget, we’d check out Luke and give him a “portfolio review”, so to speak. He’s probably been aching to have Marc do one for him anyway.

So here’s what he said:

“Ryan Dyar has officially made it!”

 

As if the fact that we’re exposing Ryan Dyar for the LOSER druggie he is will somehow make him very successful at landscape photography. Right.

Disclosure. The LOSER Luke Austin is from Australia. He should stay there, as far as we’re concerned. It’s a shame that this piece of shit flies over here to steal our images and compositions. 

Anyway, on to Luke Austin’s website. It starts off suitably enough, with a lot of pansy-ass bullshit:

“Firstly, Thank you for visiting my website”.

Yeah, whatever. Here’s his front page:

“For me photography is a form of meditation. I have to get myself in the right frame of mind to come away with successful images. In most of my images I try to not only capture what I see but also what I feel. I am interested in all forms of photography but landscape photography is where my true passion lies. I really enjoy getting out and shooting, particularly in a natural environment. I hope you enjoy viewing my images as much as I do taking them.

Landscape photography is my drug of choice. I’m hooked! By purchasing one of my prints from my online gallery ou would be supporting my healthy habit. Thank you. “

What a bunch of pansy-ass nonsense! First of all, Luke has no idea what a “comma” is. Here’s the rest of our analysis:

I have to get myself in the right frame of mind to come away with successful images	Does this imply that Luke Austin needs some chemical help to “get in the right frame of mind”? No wonder he knows Ryan Dyar.
In most of my images I try to not only capture what I see but also what I feel.	Yep, there’s the bogus excuse for Photoshopping the Heck out of your images. I’m a dainty little painter, please compare me to Ansel, please!
I am interested in all forms of photography but landscape photography is where my true passion lies.	No surprise there. It’s always landscape photography for the incompetent and fraudulent.
really enjoy getting out and shooting, particularly in a natural environment	The usual bullshit about Wilderness. We’re starting to get Déjà vu here.
Landscape photography is my drug of choice.	No wonder he knows Ryan Dyar.
I’m hooked! By purchasing one of my prints from my online gallery ou would be supporting my healthy habit. Thank you. “	That would be a big mistake. This LOSER knows nothing about printing or photography. Another pansy-ass bonehead who thinks owning a fancy camera and fancy printer makes someone an “artist”.

Now let’s look at his “PROFILE” page, where most of these LOSERS wax even more poetic about their enthusiasm for fame, uh, photography:

“Luke Austin is a dedicated and passionate Landscape Photographer. He spends countless hours studying the weather, waiting for the perfect scene to capture. Each of his images is a final product of patience.

Luke was born and raised in Perth, Western Australia. Growing up on the coast meant Luke spent the majority of his younger years in the ocean. Surfing, in particular, contributed to the deep connection he has with the environment.

After completing environment studies Luke spent a year travelling around Australia. It was this particular journey that sparked his love for landscape photography.”

Yep, more pansy-ass bullshit from a bullshit artist who clearly studied the masters of bullshit, liars like Marc Adamus and Ryan Dyar. 

Luke Austin’s bullshit	Our commentary
“Luke Austin is a dedicated and passionate Landscape Photographer	Luke Austin is a loser who probably has rich parents. So similar to Ryan Dyar. So similar….
He spends countless hours studying the weather, waiting for the perfect scene to capture.	He does not do that. He spends countless hours jerking off to the Flickr portfolio of Ryan Dyar and Marc Adamus.
Each of his images is a final product of patience.	Each of his images is a final product of trying to copy Ryan Dyar or Marc Adamus, and a ton of Photoshop.
Luke was born and raised in Perth, Western Australia. Growing up on the coast meant Luke spent the majority of his younger years in the ocean	Meaningless gibberish.
Surfing, in particular, contributed to the deep connection he has with the environment.	What a howler! Surfers don’t give a crap about the environment. Most of them, including Luke Austin, are LOSERS who smoke pot and waste their life away.
After completing environment studies Luke spent a year travelling around Australia. It was this particular journey that sparked his love for landscape photography.”	Proof that this LOSER has rich parents who fund all his obsessions and throw money at this utter failure.

Loserphotographers.com: Will the LOSERS address our critique of their thieving, copyright-violating ways?

A CHALLENGE to thieving, copyright-violating LOSERS.

 LOSERS & THUGS like Ryan Dyar, Kevin Mcneal, Adrian Klein, Floris van Breugel, Miles Morgan (especially), and others have several things in common (see here), but one thing above all:

 They are all cheats, thieves, and unrepentant scum who literally spend every waking hour working to steal other people’s work.

 They commit wholesale theft of other photographers’ work. They pat each other on the back with every successful theft. There is no remorse here, 

no guilt. This is a lawless community, a group of immoral losers and thugs who might have been highwaymen in a different time. 

 So what, exactly, is the basis for their rationalization of this theft? We’re interested in hearing it. After all, if they don’t even bother rationalizing the theft they engage in, they’re no better than the violent thugs in street gangs. Well, worse. Gangs respect each others’ property . 

 So let’s hear it. A THUG’s best explanation for the reason he thinks he can copy (steal) other people’s work and get away with it. How do you twist it around and rationalize it in your sick head? Inquiring minds want to know. 

 Ryan Dyar? Miles Morgan? Floris van Breugel? Which THUG will step up to the plate and answer us? We bet not a single one of you spineless cowards will be able to justify your actions!
