[QUOTE="Carolina Photo Guy, post: 4168, member: 1556"] Okay, that sounded a lot different than the way I wanted it to. To clarify... The "pro" that is so afraid of amateurs entering the field has probably lost the passion that got him or her into the field in the first place. That passion and the drive to make your photography niche your own is the biggest visual difference between an amateur and a pro in the visual sense. The obvious business differences aside, that drive is what makes photography an "art". Am I an artist? I don't know. But I DO know that I feel a thrill in the pit of my stomach when a picture "comes together". If I lose that, I sell the gear and go play golf. IMHO Pete [/QUOTE]
