masters don't insipre others to follow, they insipre them to develope their own identity

that is the reason why we cannot call someone a photography master, until we have looked at
his photostream, then we can see if there is any path or identity he is trying to follow, in the many
photos he has taken.
we cannot tell whether someone is a master or not by just looking at one photo
one artistically superior, technically perfect photo does not make a master
we must look at someone's whole series of photos
the whole series of photos tells us what the photographer is. an amateur or a master
one's series of photos, is like the wing of a dragonfly, when all the photos are not the same,
when they vary , then photo series can fly, towards the goal of the photographer
some people's photo series consists of photos of all the same thing, year after year after year
then photography is not going anywhere
the photography then does not fly like an eagle, he stays on the ground like a chicken
may be once in a while he lays an egg, but the eggs are all the same, as his photos are all the same
maanmo , my self, wants to practice the art of photography,
my series of photos are displayed in a continuous thread, in this forum " the photo droppings thread "
maanmo tries to fly with his photos, that means the photos must vary, like the wings of a dragon fly
but so far maanmo is still on the ground . just like a chicken. maanmo 's photo thread has
been inactive for a long time. maanmo is like a chicken that has not laid any eggs
