I know that like most people, or people you know, we’re all quite humble, a bit hard on ourselves, but whatever that case…you’re way too gnarly on yourself. It’s a fucking picture for crying out loud. You’re either taking it WAAAAYYY to fucking seriously, and not having enough fun, or you’re taking pictures for all the wrong reasons. Keep doing it, and do it enough that you’ll like something enough for us to hang on our fucking wall.
And as an aside, Art is a rad thing, be it sculpture, painting, photography, whatever, people that are into “ART” are fucking idiots. The true artists and people that appreciate it, are the ones that don’t need to make it so fucking apparent that improves their social standing. It’s bullshit, if your so down on your photography for feeling like you’re having to involve yourself with fucking art poseurs, know that you have enough of a brain to know it’s bullshit and you’re doing it for other reasons. Not social standing, not to make a name for yourself, but for appreciation of a picture, and the moods, feelings, and representation that it can contain. Fuck.
I think the majority of people do. I don’t know if it’s normal or not with photographers either. Maybe once you get your new lens that’ll change. Regardless, more Shnaked Ladies please…or Thrashin’ clips.

Nah, I seem to have fun while I’m taking photos, but almost invariably hate the end result. I don’t know if that’s normal or not with photographers…
I just put up a couple every once in a while in case somebody else might like them.

I hate all the music I write and I’ve been playing it in bands for 11 years if it makes you feel any better.
