I went to a Photography Roadshow yesterday -the usual things, lots of Wedding album designers, image software sellers, that kind of thing- and a pal of mine was telling me a story from the morning sessions.
A chap was giving a talk on Photoshop. He's a popular guy, and the room was crowded. Standing room only, and all that! So, this guy asked how many in the room were 'professional photographers', and a mere SIX people put their hands up! Take heed, brides-to-be! The market is becoming ever-more flooded with amateur snappers, intent on making a few bob from their weekend hobby. They rely on Photoshop to rescue their poor photography, rather than being able to shoot well in the first place.
A good camera does not a good photographer make!
Just making you all aware of that fact!
Oh, and after yesterday's news about my London 'exhibition', there's news today that one of my images is going to be part of a tie-in with a Japanese fashion magazine! Take that, you amateurs!
