I have a question for the group.

What makes landscapes from one photographer more valuable than those
from another photographer?

Subject matter, new way of looking at the same subjects, same way of
looking at the same subjects but greater technical skill, marketing of
the photographs/photographer?

I admire the work of Adams and Weston and many others, but is it
because they were that good or is it that they were that novel?

I have seen some photos taken by these 'Masters' that would qualify
more as snapshots without any clear subject, but they are still
outrageously priced.

So what makes them so valuable?

Curiously
