I wonder if you dislike the images for
photographic reasons
aesthetic reasons
or
subject matter reasons.

By definition a photographic document
represents a viewpoint.

The more experienced, and or professional,
the more likely to represent a viewpoint.

What exactly would images of this (or these) facilities
look like in order for the images to represent a documentary
(without representing a viewpoint)?
