I'm not always in agreement with Mr. Ellison...he's well known to be an ass & difficult. But he is absolutely right to expect payment for his writing or any other contribution.

Loved the 2nd video, because this kind of stuff does happen...everyday situations with everyday people wanting service or items for discount prices. It really is amazing how many people do want stuff, quality stuff, for nothing. For all those everyday people, they should wait until they have either a coupon or the items gets marked down. First time I'd seen either video.

Thanks for the link!

Yes, good videos, but the article should be taken seriously. The digital camera has put photography in the hands of so many whom otherwise would not have been tempted to take it up and this has had caused an explosion of willing shooters taking work from many who have invested heavilly in their careers for either a pittance or even for free in name of becoming known. The article should make up coming photograhers who are thinking of a career sit up and take notice.
