I'm sick and fucking tired of seeing every girl who owns a fucking camera calling herself a photographer.

 

And no, those fucking cheap-ass effects like making a picture greyscale with the exception of one color is not neat, it is retarded and overused. Until you learn real photoshop and quit using tools so simple a pre-schooler could master them, I won't respect you and no one else should either.

 

Now why don't you learn some skills that actually benefit somebody, you can start by learning how to make me a sandwich.

 

Apologies if any of you are "photographers".

Ehh, there are lots of pretentious people out there, always have been.  Technology has just given them a forum they never had before.  For every hundred people who at some point thinks of themselves as "photographers," maybe one will produce something worthwhile.  A few will go on to become genuine photographers.  Everyone has to start somewhere.  Sucking at something is the first step to being good at something.

Photography and programming are the only two mediums in which I can be artistic.

 

And I do use photoshop properly.

 

Also I don't put things on le facebook :3

What's the point of being a photographer if no one sees the pictures?

Of course not.  But I would genuinely like to see some, and I'm sure others would feel the same.

 

We're not assholes ALL the time, you know.

My mom does. He was her father.
 
Well, he wasn't a professional photographer, but he did win a couple awards I think. It was his main activity when he retired. (He was an engineer.)

Photography is awesome. But when people think Instagram can be considered a form of good photography then they are mistaken. Anybody with a phone can take pictures and post them on there but they aren't considered photographers. I do consider myself a photographer ( Albeit I'm not very good) I have a few photos on Devientart of my best work but most of it is shitty.
