What r some photography trends - name the good, the bad, and the awesome!

[HotHolly]

We were talking and naming some photography trends. I came up with three or four things, then my mind went blank. I thought it would be neat to see what's the latest and greatest, as well as stuff that's been hot at some point.

These are the ones I know of (and can recall at the moment):

Heart Shadow - Wedding ring in Bible makes a cute heart shadow on the page

Spot Color/ Selective Color

Rim Light

Yeah, so that's three...and I got nothing else.

Oh, profile of faces in a wine glass.

OK, add to the list! Anything that has been trendy photography or is currently awesome!

You obviously haven't been to the Renaissance festival lately. Angel wings are so in (just call them fairy wings instead)

I love playing with textures!
Orton is another one that can be overdone and garish, or "dreamy" if done right.
These are more Photoshop effects, than photo effects though.

And then there's HDR right now.

Shooting film instead of digital, but then shooting it like digital. Not utilizing film for film.
