Maybe I've had one to many coffees this morning, or simply todays reality on how photographers act amongst themselves, has simply hit too close to home, but I saw a "joke/anecdote" that sums it up, all too well.
This one is directed at photographers and "Faux-tographers", of course!

So, here goes...
Q: "How many photographers does it take to change a light-bulb?
A: Only one, but all the others are saying they could have done a better job!
And while most are out there, scrambling to give their light-bulbs away, (and installing them for free), another is silently going from door-to-door, selling a wide array of long-lasting, eco-friendly light-bulbs, 3-step ladders, extension poles and swifter dusters".

The moral of the story? You can either keep complaining about the reality you've put yourself into, or do something about it. The product wouldn't be free, if you'd stop giving it away! ;)
