[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 276517, member: 9240"] The line that resonated with me was, "[I]You have to fail 10,000 times to succeed once and eventually you carve out a set of skills that work in many applications."[/I] That's photography, and learning anything, in a nutshell. And it applies to all of us with a camera in our hands, not just the aspiring pro. Anyone who looks at someone's work with respect and awe needs to realize that at some point they were likely in the exact same place as you, scratching their head and trying to figure it out. As in all arts, there are some who are strangely gifted, but for the rest they're no different than we are - they've just put in the time. [/QUOTE]
