Last days when I'm watching DA of people, I find it very difficult to find something new and interesting. Most people is throwing here some unsharp, bad framed photos and treat that place like it was a garbage, not place for showing things you are proud of. In Poland we have portal named fotka.pl where you can throw all that garbage and watchers always left you notes like "uuuuuuu sooooo niiiiicceee photo, come to me, lobve ya bye!"... I know, that my photography is not perfect, but if you look at elder pictures and nowdays photos you will see that I made some progress.
Also I saw, that there is plenty of girl about 12-14 and they are throwing here thousands photos of themselves (NOT nice or good framed OR having some meaning - just normal photo like from family album or even worse because f.ex. it's unsharp or just.. awful) and that girls are calling themselves photographers or even worse, AN ARTISTS
.... Just help me please!
I couln't call my playing with photos art or myself an artist - I think this is a title which is given by the people after you reach something in your life. And calling youreslf "an artist" means that you're not a real artist, just showman.
I don't know, maybe it's just mine opinion about that, but... LOOK AROUND. Very few person overhere makes an Art written by big "A".... Because The Art is something absolutly new and oryginal. You can meet some good photographers overhere (look at
and
for example), they are really nice, but something new? It's quite hard to find something new in painting and photography, don't you think?
