A nice camera doesn't mean they're nice pictures

~~The only decent camera that I have doesn't totally confuse me is my sister's Canon PowerShot A470, and it doesn't work.~~

His last batch was pretty mediocre.

i'd agree, the only one imo that stood out as being pretty good was the first one

as for swholli, any piece of art can be criticized no matter how good it is. how will you ever get better if you never criticize your work?

after a massive abstract picture spree, many blurred pictures because I have shaky hands, and several dog pictures, I killed the batteries in the camera.
that thing hates batteries with a burning passion.

God, was anyone claiming that because I had a nice camera they were good pictures? I even went out of my way to say that the camera does not make the picture, the photographer does.

I'm not getting upset over you criticizing my pictures, I simply think that people who think a good camera will take good photographs are the lowest of photographers, and I want to make it clear that this is sincerely not what I think.

we have a beast of a camera at our house because my aunt was a professional photographer but she got cancer and now she has trouble doing things like that (basically she is in an assisted living even though she's only like 65)

camera is like ~$1000 or $1500 though
loving cool stuff

of course my parents don't let me use it though

Note: I never said don't be constructive.

I just said never just try to bring the artist down. The person who does is usually just a jerk wh-
