I'm not a photographer ! @goldcoastkidz

Now I know how Spider-man felt when he first picked up a camera.
I am not a photographer . I don't know what makes a person qualify as a photographer.
I had just bought the camera 17 days before this photo.

At the time I really didn't care for taking photos or never thought I would be making a good income from this particular talent. I guess this is what we humans call love & curiosity.

I never wanted to be called a photographer. It wasn't until this particular shot I knew the word "photographer"  would consume & direct my life down a path were necessary skills and spontaneous ideas, could build a great business one day. 




The competitive nature that took place since this day tends to eat me alive.
The professionalism, in which the industry expects, somehow is a gift & a cruise.  

I feel each photo published is like a spider web. Which would determine how quick the job gets done but somehow the quality is undeniable. I'm at a point now where each relationship built through shooting photos has no value unless I have a camera in my hand. I've learned that the average person is uncomfortable with taking photos, especially when the quality is great. At the same time my eye as adapted to know the difference between a I phone selfie & a photo being taken.
                                        
I have also learned people gravitate towards those who have the same interests. This doesn't mean the relationship is genuine or will be worth keeping. I pay attention to small things for the sake of the bigger picture.

I am not a photographer, I am a artist !
