I so look forward to reading you...@Cloud - thanks! I so look forward to reading your post. I think there is *some* cultural pressure to just be defined as one thing, and it starts early. Like you can be the Geek, but not Homecoming Queen also. Etc etc. Frustrating.<br /><br />@LauraC - there are a lot of technical aspects to photography, and I'm sure your mad organization skills help with the biz side, but there is that undeniable *artistic talent* bit that separates the good from the great. You have that part too, and I've seen it with some of the other Techers too (Jen Yu, Serge B and his band, etc.) That's really neat to see.<br /><br />@Divs - I think you should go for it. It doesn't mean you have to totally quit one thing to do the next - you could make it more of a graceful transition. Does that mean you're going to publish a novel soon? :)<br /><br />And @Di, I totally squealed at my computer the day you mentioned you were highlighted on the ATK site :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15212690454989568626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11927979.post-39470415693968461662012-01-06T16:01:37.669-08:002012-01-06T16:01:37.669-08:00One of the things I've really hated about grow...One of the things I've really hated about growing up is the need to specialize. I've always loved a variety of subjects, and been "good enough" at many of them to have chosen from quite a few career paths. I wish I could reinvent myself every 5-10 years, but sadly that is not practical. And I'm nothing if not practical. :PDivsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11927979.post-17778018529384455972012-01-06T05:20:10.520-08:002012-01-06T05:20:10.520-08:00Yo, gotta give a shout out to say that both photog...Yo, gotta give a shout out to say that both photography and music are mathematical and technical in nature. Digital photography, particularly, lots of technical stuff. I actually think that is one of the reasons I am doing well in my business - I can get things turned around quickly because I am NOT an "artiste." HA!<br /><br />Yay for Bead Trends!LauraChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14322568136833382134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11927979.post-20385518480424054322012-01-06T04:17:58.860-08:002012-01-06T04:17:58.860-08:00I think it's a fine idea to combine your blogs...I think it's a fine idea to combine your blogs. My blog is mostly baking, but other stuff sneaks in there, too. =) Congratulations on the acceptance. It still amazes me when I get outside recognition for my baking photos & blog, but I agree, it's very cool. =)Dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01968703151905016369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11927979.post-34332792634091478282012-01-05T22:22:42.057-08:002012-01-05T22:22:42.057-08:00I love this post.
