I forgot to search...


Not sure if it's been mentioned but I recently caught an episode of From the Edge with Peter Lik on the Weather Channel. Entertaining show about him going out to get his shots.

I must suck at photography cause I don't know how that could be a million dollar shot.

Am I missing something? Cause how can that scene vanish and never to be seen again? Trees and trunks aren't gonna haul their ass somewhere else.

I dislike him....a lot.....

fine arts sucks in that, like anything in the freelance world its the luck of the draw.

Take the internet and forums for example...every dipshit and their mother has a low end SLR these days and are posting sub-par work and getting "amazing shots" as feed back from people.

It kills me more and more every day.
