But, in an earlier post Fantasieimages was called a poster who just wanted to self promote and raise his posting count.

I really tried to let it ride but as someone who is here to learn myself I couldn't.

The person who blasted Don joined 12/29/05 it appears and when I went to his portfolio, I didn't see any pictures of his work. Yet he is willing to degrade someone else's work. If one of the rules or courtesies here is when giving a critique to post an example, then I have to ask where is Bluegrassimages photos to qualify himself.

I may be new here and not the best photographer in the world, but I try to post a photo when I can and when I deem appropriate.

On a personal note, I took Bluegrassimages comments as a slap myself because I also post a lot here. Like Don and DeAnn, where we are in a learning process what right has this particular person to say we post to much. I myself joined at the end of Nov. and look at my numbers, are they too much, am I self promoting with smoke and mirrors. I think not.

JT said it well or at least gave the right word, disfunctional, just like most families. Maybe we all have a bit of this in ourselves, but that's no reason to bash someone who has learned as quickly as Don and DeAnn have. They learned quickly because they were here posting, asking questions, getting critiques and giving as well. When they did, they also give some good examples of work well done I feel.

I told Don this and I'll say it here. I only hope to learn half as fast as they have. Don and DeAnn have proved they have a commitment to this profession and I commend them for it.

So Bluegrassimages, I'm not sure where your coming from, but here's a piece of advice. It's better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt.

Have a nice day.
