[QUOTE="RON_RIP, post: 451239, member: 1140"] Your absolutely right Don. And this rule covers all crafts. I am a cabinetmaker and I had to learn not only the basics but advanced skills as well for any of my work to approach a plateau that could be considered artful. And every single day I practice my craft I am forced to master new skills and refine my old skills just to do a creditable job. I am sure that is true of potters, glass blowers etc. Any thing we set out to do we need to do as well as we possibly can. I am reminded of the Shaker chair makers who set out to build a chair as if an angel should come down from heaven tomorrow and need a place to sit. in our photography perhaps we should strive to be able to do justice to a portrait of an angel, should one ever call on us to do so.
