My umbrella girls had this short conversation and I keep on pondering over it . And surfing the net, blog hopping, it helps strengthen the fact we umbrella-girls had state down .
Feeling upset, I think they should stop .
Seeing them carrying a camera in their hand, during breakouts, whatever the reason is, we don't care but seriously it pisses us off . And they seriously look like a wannabes . Photography is not a trend . I dunno how, but it is like the IN thing now . And you will see people carrying DSLR around the world, trying to tell that THEY SNAP GOOD PHOTOS . But hell, they don't even know how to hold the camera right . Not holding the camera right, not knowing the right way to support your DSLR, would not produce good shots you see . There's no stability in the camera . And having good camera doesn't mean you are a good photographer that takes good shots . Like Justyn always say,
"Even if you have the most lousiest camera, you are a true photographer and you take good shots, you are a good photographer ."
Its YOU that matter . Not the camera .
And again, allow me to emphasize, PHOTOGRAPHY IS NOT A TREND . I had been into photography since DEC 2005 . And I felt like I suddenly wake up from a hibernation to realize there are more and more "PHOTOGRAPHERS" around . And these are the people that have not shown symptoms to their addiction in photography, and it's like out of a sudden, you see them with good shots in their profile .
And everybody wants to have DEVIANTART . I am not trying to stop those who are into photography now, but I just don't want them to see photography as a trend and will fade away soon enough . They seem to make photography so ugly .
Just some thoughts penned down .
