On a scale of one to ten....rate my assumption
I just got done posting this on another forum and I am curious as to how accurate you guys....a group of Photoenthusiests find my assessment.

The word is Photographer, what you used isn't even a word.
Actually, I find the phrase somewhat appropriate, there are a growing number of people that seem to believe that the shere ability to take a picture makes them a photographer. More and more "Photographers" are displaying pictures on the internet, Pictures that are not only poorly composed but truthfully are nothing more than family picture album fodder.
I kinda gets to me a little to see "Professional Sample Galleries" Riddled with rookie mistakes in every image and they are making money off this crap. Mistakes like crooked horizons, OOF subjects, busy composition and stupid crap like that.
Hell, if my calculatuions are correct, almost seventy percent of todays professional pornography photographers can not focus on their subject with their Auto focusing lenses, almost ninty percent don't know a damn thing about lighting.....they are not photographers, they may as well be photographists.
