BF Stop 2

…what YOU think about photography. We would like to know your opinions about what turns someone with a camera into a PHOTOG. What turns a shot into THE SHOT. And what sets a GREAT photographer above the rest?

Everyone knows photography blends art with skill, a natural talent with actual training. But which do you think is more important to have? The art or the skill?

And what attributes must a really great shot possess? What is more important, the composition, the subject, the lighting or even something else?

And how does a photographer become The photographer that is booked out months in advance?

We want to know what all you photogs out there have to say. So, please leave us your answers to these questions (and any other photography-related ideas) in the comments section. We look forward to reading your thoughts on the matter.

Also, if you have any images you think really capture the essence of great photography, send them to lindi{at}bigfolio{dot}com for your chance to appear on an upcoming feature.
