[QUOTE="Flugelbinder, post: 240587, member: 18582"] The hardest thing about not being a "real" photographer, to me, is the lack of confidence, or the know-how, to tell people what to do, where to sit, etc... You think they won´t take you serious, you think they think you don´t really know what you´re doing, what you´re talking about, etc... For example, a few days ago (I now carry the D90 everywhere :)) a family member (or members in this case) sat down and said: "Take a picture of us"... They decide to sit down in the worst possible place... Low light, in front of a bright window (and I didn´t bring the speedlight that day, was only thinking about the fire-works)... What do you do? You take he shot and something like this comes out... Not too bad huh??? [/QUOTE]
