Hi Richard, Good question, of course an easy answer would be a standard/benchmark that I have set for myself for over 30 years of photography. I could write a book on what is "pro standard." I read an article last year on interviews of commercial photographers who graduated from a major university, the common thread that went through their interviews was clients were satisfied with "good enough." I have a friend who owns a local commercial lab who has always believed in quality and felt he could survive the digital revolution but was shocked at how fast mediocrity rose to the surface. Another friend who is in graphics said we are getting a dose of what happened to them years ago.......
