:eek: :eek: :eek:...oh no.

 

G.A S. ... Gear acquisition syndrome. Although gear do matter at least up to a bare minimum, it is not the gear. What beginners really need.


Workshops...what do you do there?

 

It takes a long time to be good at anything. Be realistic about your expectations. Compare yourself to your last output not others but it's a motivation to be better.



Skill or talent?

 

High ISO does not cause noise but the lack of light in the scene. :eek::eek::eek: Better to have a photo than a blurry one or not at all.

New Lightroom Denoise VS Topaz Denoise. :oops:

 

Only 16% of photography graduates work in the photographic industry, why?



Is it necessary to have business skills to be a photographer?

 

Everybody acts like a pro these days after watching a couple of videos :rolleyes:

Creativity cannot be planned, it happens.


 

If you think you are a good person, then you shouldn't be an artist. In art, people who become successful are often strange. - Hiroshi Sugimoto. His prints can sell for a million dollars. 👀

 

We can all agree When it comes to photography National Geographic is the gold standard. So let's hear it from S.G. What I like is he does not collude with YouTube to drag video talking and rambling ( yt inserting advertisements ) but is short, direct and succinct. He starts with the basics and goes on to advanced techniques. 👍 We can all do with a refresher don't you think? The smart Alecs know it all so they don't need it.. all good for them. That's all for now as it will take some time to digest. ✌️
