Poachers

In the photographic world there used to be an unwritten rule...we don't poach clients from others...in the new world of amateur professionals...full time jobbers playing photographer, the rules are different...they don't respect the unwritten rules...they see everything as ok...now if someone was to show up at their office and start poaching their clients...how would that make them feel...angry...upset...absolutely.  So why is ok for them to poach clients from photographers? The reason...they aren't professional...they have no professional ethics...I despise these people.

The most pathetic person is someone with sight, but has no vision.

In this day and age of social media, camera phones, digital this and that, people fail to see a future...all they see is what is in front of them...they have no vision for anything past that...they live within their own pathetic little world pretending that they are more important than the next person...what these people don't see is that the person next to them may very well have a vision for the future...a vision that will capture life on that day and send it to the future as they move through time...as a photographer I see images as capturing the moment so that it may be enjoyed by others in the future...perhaps long after I am gone...I work with people that have no vision...these people simply don't understand what it is...my Dad is a photographer and for decades he has captured images that are being enjoyed generations after...have you ever tried to explain to someone how important an image is...knowing full well that they will never understand...it's these pathetic people that will be forgotten in the future...no vision
