I just recently purchased a mid range camera setup and have already had a couple Semi Pro Photographers give me that "so you think you can be a photographer" look. Well, yeah I think I can! I have always had the sense to see what is really beautiful in nature and now I have the ability to go out and capture some of it. Obviously I have a lot to learn about the dynamics of my camera settings but I will get there soon enough.

Thanks for posting and I enjoyed the rant; keep it up
