The biggest change is in the perception of how people see a photograph. My best shots used to just impress people "wow, how did you take that" Nowadays, anything more than the mundane (quality axis) is likely to be met with "huh, how did you do that?" Basically, there's little kudos to being able to take a great photo in these post-digital days. Just get used to looking for plaudits based on the end p[product alone ;o) Bob
