Damn, look what I started. ;) Penguinisto is so right about photography. I swear, it's 50% talent, and 50% sheer luck to get the perfect image. You've got to know your tools and have The Eye, but if the moment isn't there, it's just another picture. Even professional models have off-days. Catching that one perfect sunbeam in the fleeting moment it exists, or, as in his example, the photographers of 9-11, turn 'just another photograph' into living breathing history. Get your shot set up completely, start shooting, and a butterly flits past, or leaves start falling, or the wind starts to blow. Catch it, man, catch it. You never know what treasures you'll end up with. I had a huge ranting spell a few weeks back over the issue of CGI versus tradtional "art." Hypocrisy and elitism. I posted it in another 3D forum on another site, and to my amusement, saw the modelers do the same thing I was complaining about. It's even inside art genres. If you don't model everything from scratch, you aren't an artist. If you use CGI, you aren't an artist. It just goes on and on.
