Well, there's a really easy way: stop participating in it. - Noam Chomsky |

I have seen my prints and I have seen the prints of many others. Mine are always better. I offer you a chance to see one. Yes or no? |

m... I have seen my prints and I have seen the prints of many others. Mine are always better. I offer you a chance to see one. Yes or no? I have seen the prints of thousands; having been a photo editor helped in that regard, so has decades of interest. I was once considered a good enough printer to be chosen as a custom B&W printer at the most prestigious custom wet printing facility in the country. And STILL I would never claim to be "the best printer on the planet" as you have, nor even the best printer I know. Not ever. Why? Because it's a plain fact that there are always better printers. Period. If one thinks he is the best, then he has lost the critical mindset which allows one to become better, indeed even to retain what already has. It's called The Learning Mindset. Without it there is no hope. From humility comes learning, then reflection/critique, and the circle continues, and maybe, just maybe we do something good. Humility. Tattoo that word somewhere so you can see it. |
