The latter is far preferable for the sanity of the rest of us. Please do ignore whenever possible! And, I submit, our resident does not deserver the title of troll, much less Troll. He's simply a pest of extreme virulence. I've seldom seen such anger last for so long. -- john mcwilliams

Please do : ignore whenever possible! And yet there's no evidence that ignoring him does any good. He responds equally and similarly to almost any post, whether it's to or about him or not. : And, I submit, our resident does not deserver the title of troll, much : less Troll.

Actually, going to a conventional "interesting location" is probably limiting, since the "right photograph" is so clearly defined. I've been to beauty spots where there are literally "take your photo from here" plaques on the ground. If you were to do so, your photograph would be very similar to the postcards on sale nearby.
