This seems immensely popular! I suppose it's because photography on the whole is a pretty lonely, and alienating business. I've always believed you learn more by teaching, and sharing the learning curve. (Oh I'm so full of myself. :p)

I've got a knack for blagging my way into work, and I have done some shots at ITN studios, and quite a lot of production stills, and for expeditions... but I have a lot to learn on the technical side of photography...I'm pretty ambitious...I'll be a pro soon enough...one can hope o_o

I'm also a solid researcher, and I get very critical. So do excuse me if I analyse things way too much. :wacky:
