"Out of 1000, you're bound to get 1 good one"
So I was surfing the Facebook this morning, and I came across some of my friend's photos that were taken by a....professional...here in town, and I was like holy cow, it's not perfect but it does look like something out of a movie. So I click on the photographer's page, and my reaction went something like this:
The first two images I saw of my friend were really, really nice. But then, all the others were shot in bright sun, uncontrolled shadows everywhere., anemic colors. Ugh.
It makes me wonder if some photographers are just trolling the internet. They know what to do to get good images, but they just don't care.
OR, they're literally (yes, literally) like this:

Tell me what you think. It would mean a lot.

Well, maybe not the best way, but its by far the most entertaining.
Also, just because you don't know how to use your equipment doesn't mean others shouldn't learn how to use theirs.

Auto modes and features are getting better (more capabilities) with each new generation of camera. Compare to computer hardware and software over the passed 15 years, or so. Originally Posted by Derrel

the Faux aren't (I'm probably one myself) but the equipment is making it easier for them. Or you could argue the same point with digital music is going through. I have been hearing of a big push by some to go back to records and other lo-fi music instead of the digital music. If that happens here, then it's back to film with a premium when it gets popular again. Originally Posted by Derrel
