Reply To: Does anything else matter besides a good portfolio?

EyeDocPhotog:

I’m not all that surprised that recent threads I’ve started here have been responded to first by you and every one has been a smart ass comment. It’s not hard to extrapolate from those comments that your website (if it exists, please post a link if it does) likely suffers from the same flaws but you simply don’t care. For all I know, you’re the one who’s been posting all the spam just to get your rocks off (or something else if you’re of the fair sex). If you want to further display your immaturity, arrogance and be more of a disgrace to your profession, you can certainly respond to this, but as far as I’m concerned, this ends here.

Your response is more like what I was expecting and I appreciate that. I was just curious to see if anyone else thought an online presence beyond a portfolio meant anything. Your response is insightful and makes perfect sense. Yes, this is a photography bashing site and I agree with almost everyone’s comments on the images and links that appears on here. But you are one of the few posters here I have any respect for when you take the time to post (sometimes lengthy!) comments on things like white balance and lighting for those that ask for it. I never knew what keystoning was until I saw it in one of your posts and looked it up, but I doubt very few on here would admit to learning something on here because they’re all experts behind the lens. So for that I thank you and it doesn’t hurt that you’re also Canadian, eh? 🙂
