Everyone's a damned photographer!

I feel the same way about HDR. Just because your phone/software/camera has that feature it doesn't make you a photographer.

I've never imagined myself a photographer. Back in the day of actual film cameras I took the lousiest shots imaginable. Got so that I would never take a shot even if given someone else's camera. I'm slowly getting to the point where I take a shot with my phone (the new one I just got is taking some getting used to camerawise)--but I'll never give myself that particular moniker.

I have a proper camera, and understand f stops and shutter speeds and focal lengths, but i dont consider myself a photographer really. Sadly to me, hdr "photos" are pictures, not photos, to me a photo is painstakingly setup to capture something, not what technology or software can do with it. A picture is a representation, hand done or manipulated and can be perfectly beautiful... But its not a photo

I knew a amateur photographer. Always had a satchel and one or two cameras around his neck. He'd take 2-3 hundred shots, never ask anyone to "pose" and "disappeared" from group/family outings constantly. Once n a helicopter.

Never sold a one but he has dozens of great slide carousels and thousands of negatives.

I HATE bossy picture takers. My uncle Larry spoiled me.

So, Minnesota would rather people not be able to advance themselves without the officiating organization paying a fee, first? Do libraries have to pay a fee to lend books? Do documentaries put together by universities have to pay a fee first? If I move into the state and give away old college text books, do I have to pay a fee first? http://www.forbes.com/sites/evapereira/2012/10/19/minnesota-bans-free-online-education/
