@jwcph @Mycroft A long time ago I tried to become a professional photographer. Then I spoke to a pro who complained about all the shiti jobs he did and the rotten quality he had to deliver. He longed to be an amateur again.
Good amateurs often do better work than professionals because they care and take their time to get it right.
