Amusing in one way, sad in another. It is easy for us, who put so much effort into improving our photography to look at the people who would use such a camera, or a cell phone camera, instagram, a Holga etc. as wankers. But, really, that's a pretty snobbish and condescending attitude. I'm willing to bet that they get as much fun, and probably a lot less frustration, out of their photography. Likewise, their audience probably gets as much enjoyment out of their photos, as your audience gets from yours. There's also a good chance that if you hung one of their photos and one of our photos up on the wall of a coffee shop, their photo would get as much interest as one of ours. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
