When reading about fine-art photography, it seems there's an inverse 
relationship between the amount of bloviation used to describe images and 
the quality of the images. 

For example:

<< Her snapshot-like images speak of the truth of an undisguised moment. >>

Maybe her photos are sharper than the party pics we shot of friends and 
family with our first Kodak Brownies or Instamatics, but phrases such as 
that give us an undisguised look at the truth of many moments in the 
fine-art photo world.
