It's amazing how technology changes things, and if you were born at the right time the advantages that you have. Take poker, a 24 year old kid can see the same amount of hands as Doyle Brunson has (he's about 75) because he was brought up in the internet era. I wonder how good Doyle would've been if he grew up in this era. Although he is one of the best now.

Now with photography, when I started (I'm not that old) I couldn't just click away...it cost way too much money. People who don't use film, think about everytime you click you camera that it would cost you about a 50 cents a shot. So when you take 500 pictures of your friend for fun, that would be 250 bucks. Of course you may only take a roll or two. Digital is so facinating, it lets you become more creative. It bugs me to hell when I talk to an old school photographer and they say, why do you take so many pictures. I always say, "cause I can."

I would be very in debt if I was shooting film

lol..and think about how much easier it is to get better seeing your images right away instead of waiting forever. You can take more risk and be way more creative.
