No - it only proves that people in general will be as tight
with their own money as possible and what someone else does
is considered inferior to whatever they do for their sustanence.
Human nature is very self-centered - we really are greedy selfish
creatures when the cards are down.
Though we here on PDML are quite photography-oriented, the
vast range of folks have considered photography as a low cost
commodity for quite some time now. Most no longer even have any
experience of much more than snapshots and trying to get them
to see any difference between a well executed photograph using
quality equipment and a dimestore 4x6 from a disposable P&S is
becoming an exercise in futility.
Hang in there - just because these folks have shown their
true colors doesn't mean that everyone out there is of the
same mindset - though they are gaining ground ;^(
