[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 459458, member: 13090"] Maybe I'm biased because I work in the Visual Arts department at a college with a thriving photography department. I see people come here with no knowledge whatsoever about photography and watch them progress from barely capable snapshot takers into stunning photographers who enter, and win, juried shows and shows at prestigious galleries. If formal education doesn't work for you, personally, it certainly does work for many. I know when I started to get more serious about photography part of my "problem" was that I didn't know what I didn't know. I didn't know there was (so much!) science behind the art of photography much less understand it. I think many people assume all artistic endeavor is purely subjective when, in fact, it's not. Not even. No, he didn't. He got his PhD from, I believe, the University of Zurich. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
