Everybody wants to be a Photographer

Post by Steve Ekstrand »

When we were at Willow last Wednesday, Will Kalman tells me how he wants to get back into photography. It seems everybody in our sport is into photography. I can even sheepishly admit to being photo editor of our high school yearbook. And I've sold a few shots for commercial use. Obviously me have some real pro's like Mako. And a bunch of talented people, its an endless list, I won't even try.

Well, here is our newest.... An he's seriously old school. :thumbup:

Our REAL Pro is Henry ... you salivate over his work on TV without even knowing it ... if you don't fast forward past all of the commercials.

Cute shot of Robert ... is he going to skip (private) kindergarten and go straight to Brooks Institute of Photography or Art Center. I can see him and Roman hanging out together. I don't see how those schools could have passed up a look'er like him (Harvard will eventually take him). But do tell him, if he doesn't study hard, he's going to end up shooting AX on weekends, or Papping like some of us ... no disrespect to them ... but better to be like Dr. Flores.

Did you see Getty Images announcement about Flickr.com images?
$200-$500 a shot I think?
I'd think all the photogies would be switching to flickr based on that possible opportunity.
