Please Let Me Encourage You Today

Sometimes people write things in comments that I really have oppinions about and can't really do justice in a quick response to how I feel about what they are experiencing.

Yesterday, Bush Babe from Australia was speaking about photo snobs in a response and I had to comment. I won't repeat the whole thing in this article but if you want to read it you can click here on comments and scroll down to where Bush Babe comments and I reply.

Near the bottom of that same string of comments is another comment that came in this morning from MCCasey that made me want to respond to encourage all of you.

I have written an article that begins with the point I want to make here. I will quickly say that if no one in the entire world liked my photos at all ... I would still take pictures ... and I think you should too. I am not competing to get better with anyone but myself. I am trying to improve but if I don't ... I am still going to take pictures. If you want to know more you can read this older article My General Guidelines To Photography written in response to many frequently asked questions that were sent to NikonSniper.

MCCasey, Never give up shooting! Or any of the rest of you. If you get up every day, turn on your camera and put your life on continuous fire, ... sooner or later your bound to hit something ... and in that process you will learn. And the next time you will hit more and more. You are getting better over time. I am living proof you can get better beause my photography truely was horrible when I bought my first camera. You couldn't even tell what was in the pictures. Keep shootin'.

PS ... Oh yeah and in that same string of comments there are several from Braff Zackton. You might gather I have known him for a while and that he never lets anything die between us.
