[QUOTE="moss918, post: 369614, member: 23473"] You do realise that crisp photos existed before DSLR's don't you? Sorrry for the sarcasm but a frustrating amount of people seem to think that the advances in digital photography can create advances in their abilities as a photographer. I've only seen this one example of your work so I'm sorry to assume this applies to you aswell but I see way too many amateur photos at professional prices. I'm sure you have created some great images and I'd love to see them and be proven wrong here, but amateur photographers seem to fall in love with their early work and setting up a business with these sub-par photos implies to me that the education is finished. I have a collegue who never used an SLR (of any kind) before 6 months ago, but had been into snapshot "Lomography" for some time - which required little knowledge of photography (And in it's random nature didn't [I]require[/I] much creativity either...) He has since bought a DSLR (That does some of the work for him) and is now talking about quitting his job and "being a photographer" [SIZE="4"][COLOR="Red"][B]![/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] Most of this hopefully doesn't apply to you and, like I said, I hope you have some great images that are worthy of someones hard earned cash and prove me completely wrong. The quote above just seemed to push me to rant I suppose... :black: [/QUOTE]
