There’s no such thing as a faux amateur.  I mean, how can someone pretend to be an amatuer or be a fake amateur? Since ONLY professional (as in IN business) photographers are ever featured here, you are safe 🙂

I have a difficult time critiquing when photography is purely for the artist.  No plans on selling, and no plans on wanting to go pro, or even offer people services for free… I don’t get my “art” critiqued very much, if at all these days.  I only seek it when I need help with something, or I’m trying something new and uncomfortable.  Are you sure you want to go there? (not that I see anything majorly wrong or even slightly wrong with your photography after glancing)

I want to be able to give your photography a lot of time and thought (if you still want critique ), so I may have to come back tomorrow so I can give it my undivided attention.

You are NOT a fauxtographer  and I’m so glad you realize that being an amateur is not a bad thing (it’s even better actually) hopefully as time goes on there will be more and more of us out there, like it’s supposed to be.  and less and less “pros”
