Again if the reason for publicly bashing someone elses property being in poor taste to you, is something you need explained to you, you are beyond my help. (and I think you know why it is and you are just try to stir things up on here, come on) 
OCD, I agree-fully the discussion should be had, just not like this. |
Since taste has no definition, I question your word choice. Someone above also said "classless" which I would also argue is a poor word choice as it can't truly be defended. I actually laughed out loud at that post. I'll save you the debate on this as it can be quite an intellectual exercise.
I stand 100% behind my post that the hillside is an example of what should not happen on the lake. I also think the thought of having their own house being posted is what is getting people's feather ruffled.
If they improve it to add trees and vegetation, that would go a long way towards preserving both the lake and surrounding aesthetics. Again, I'll believe it when I see it.
HOWEVER, suppose someone is seen on the lake doing something that the photographer found of interest. Now suppose the subject in the photograph complains about being called out (snowmobile skimmer, on plane too close to shore, rafting, anchoring too close). Should that be removed? Do you support censoring?
