Is This You? It’s Definitely Me! #5 Is So True…
It’s kind of funny the characteristics that we photographers all have in common. I must admit when I first read these it felt like someone was living inside my head and listening to my thoughts. If you’re truly a photographer I doubt you’ll be able to read this without feeling the exact same way.

I had a good laugh, and I can identify with all of them. I think #’s 3, 4, and 5 stuck out the most! No matter where I am, I’m checking lighting, my family hates going on a road trip with me because I stop for EVERYTHING, and I always get #5!! UGH!

#4 is wrong. I prefer to be by myself. It’s either they don’t have patience or it turns into a critique.

#5 pisses me off to no end. I get equally annoyed when a talented beginner says I “just” have a certain camera or lens. Equipment does matter but only to a certain point

Nooo…………………the car costs more than your gear but when you make your income from your gear, your gear is worth more than your car.

Light and a good understanding how to read it is the most important thing in making a great photograph. One of my best shots ever was done with a black box with a pinhole for the lens. I cut the film to fit the box,exposed it,mixed the chemicals to process it,most of that process was done in total darkness,wash and dried it and made the print. The eye of the photographer and the how to see the finished shot before the exposure is made is key. With most any camera today any one who read can take a great photo but few know what happens inside the camera when the shutter button is pressed.take away digital cameras computers and Photoshop and millions of people will be lost.A great photo starts in the mind.

Yep. They’re all true. I had about a 10 year gap between film and a P&S. It was another two years before I couldn’t stand it anymore and bought my old Nikon 3100. I have managed some amazing pictures with it. Yeah, I’ve got my eye on a 7100, but my lil ol 3100 is as good as I am.

Btw, this is much easier to read on LightStalking. Is it even remotely possible to inject more ads into an otherwise excellent article?

A truly bull poop article, mostly likely written by someone who was not succesful in photography or in their life away from photography.

At the paper at times we would have five guys shooting a football game, that was fun. We were together, but each was trying to get the best photo. But mostly would like to work alone. Just me I suppose.

#3 is true for me, but there should be a sixth – you are always scanning/scouting.
For # 5, people are surprised by my shots.

Number #2 hits the spot! Even people that barely know me are always asking for free photos; or since I have a camera can I just take a little time to photograph their event…for free of course.
Absolutely…………
Good example for #3 – I went to a baseball game with some friends this afternoon and all I could think about was how crappy and harsh the sun was.
#5:
Can totally relate!
Been at it for a little over a year and I’ve heard #5 so often I want to scream lol
It’s too computer…? Did I guess right…?
These were great! #2 was my life for many years till I learned how to say no, or started to Barter for my services!
#4? I loath even talking to other photographers. Everyone’s ego seems to be tied to what they shoot.
