Yes: good riddance
>>4463104Post your favorite pic youve taken
Based and sigma-pilled.
>>4463104>i give up photography because im too retarded to do something for fun>you just dont understand i HAVE to be GOOD at itpeople like you are so draining to be friends with
>>4463104Haha, I managed to get good it
>>4463104that is what rocks and leaves does to mf.never go rocks and leaves.
>>4463453Cute hedgie, what's his name?
>>4463457clouds is where is at
>>4463453If you can't make money out of your hobbies you're just a larping passive faggot
>>4463543sorry I am not jewish to have such fucked worldview. I just enjoy doings things for the sake of it.
>>4463543you need to be 18 to use this website
>>4463546And if you're not retarded, you get good at it. Most people don't have the discipline and prefer to wallow in mediocrity and never challenge themselves, coping that that's what they actually want. As I said, passive folks.
>>4463553Yes? That doesn't mean that you need to be a soulless retard that only thinks about the ROI
>>4463558Trying to make money from the time you invested into getting good at something is not soulless. The goal is escaping the 9 to 5 while doing a thing you love - a nobler intent than most others. People who limit themselves to being passive consumers of their hobby without ever even trying live worse than literal slaves, numbed down by the grind. What a sad life.
>>4463562this is the exact thing someone who doesnt have a lot of life experience would say there is no faster way to suck the enjoyment out of something than to start it with the intent to do is as a career.Do you really think famous photographers did that?No they did it because they enjoyed it and got famous for being that good. Use your brain retard.It's always the people that actively try to leave the rat race that contribute to involve things that shouldnt be in the rat race the most. Photography isnt in the rat race and it wont be simply because you want it to be. Faggot
>>4463562no wonder you didnt enjoy photographysuch a soulless approach
>>4463562>the goal is to escape 9-5 while activelt making your escape a 9-5retard
>>4463562I escaped the 9 to 5 through the power of eggs and do photography to express my love for how beautiful and attractive the canine form is
>>4463572Nope, learning a craft for real involves much more sacrifice and time than a 9 to 5. That's why people don't have the balls to try, it takes courage and willpower - it's easier to just go in the office and type away Excel files then going on Reddit and cry about the alienation of our neoliberal society.
>>4463578again, spoken like someone who doesnt have a lot of life experience
>>4463582It's precisely my life experiences that led me here. I would have killed myself if I never came to a point where I just couldn't settle for mediocrity anymore. It was soul crushing. Now even if I never make it, at least I tried living.
>>4463583i dont feel bad for you because you told everyone else to give up just because you did. your drug yourself up and learned absolutely nothing and that's discounting that you may be lying
>>4463562Hello Rabbi
NEVER GIVE UP ANON!!!!!!!!
>>4463576Extremely based. I hope your dog is at least half husky.
>>4463543I have actually made money selling egg prints. Not much for now, but I can say complete strangers have purchased my art.I got to show a bunch of people some of my 8x10 contact prints. Still lifes and portraits and they said they wanted their own. Who knows if they'll follow through, but they did seem really impressed by them. Exposure is key. Not many people have seen a good contact print.
>>4463586Jews are the reason nobody knows you even have a camera
>>4463583this guy is the least mediocre photographer alive
>itt bunch failures coping that making money is through your craft is jewish yeah man all of the rockstars like david bowie, brain eno and beatles were jewish who became millionaires through their music careers
>>4463104Post your best photo and worst photo
OP all of you suspicions are right. Photography is greatest art medium but there is no money in it. I would suggest you to slide into film or painting. In both of these fields you can have a career and recognition for your work. I know utterly dog shit painters who live through by exhibiting their artwork. In comparison I know many good photographers stuck in dead end jobs and living in poverty. Irony is that they don't even get their share of recognition. You can try your hand at fashion/editorial type shit. Or do wedding photography. But these art mediums are not fulfilling and leave you with blue balls.
B A S E DASEDYou should kill yourself too.
>>4463104Photography is dead thanks to digital cameras and the internet. The era before internet and fully mechanical film slr's was the golden age of photography. The digital age is by far the worst age to live in. We have to go back to an analog world.
>>4466204Film and analog printing methods are even more special now that less people are using them.
