Nope. Thats how others see photographers. Thats not how I see myself, or other serious photographers.Have you ever had this feeling.
Thats a feeling I know. Theres always room for improvement. Think more, examine more, keep your mind open for strikes of inspiration, get faster and more efficient, pay more attention to the light, move around more, improve your technique with the camera itself, rather take one picture more than not enough, ... and all these aspects at the same time, too.Questionning your work, like crazy; I have all these question.
But thats also why I never ever feel like a 'monkey'. I know situations in which I feel like a monkey perfectly well - but thats when I get bored and my mind starts to wander off.
Quite on the contrary photography when done well is damn strenous and requires a lot of concentration. At least for me.
