Re: Annie Leibovitz photography exhibit opens at Lincoln museum

Yeah, I’m sure working hard has something to do with it, but I’m not sure about luck coming along with it. Paying attention is what it is all about, or being ‘in the groove’.

Some folks in here expend a fair of amount of effort telling me I am not a nice person when they have never met me. We aren’t sitting in a coffee shop discussing photography, we’re in front of a screen.

Others (you), tell us all kind of unneeded information about images they enter into the PF gallery. I do not need to know you have worked on a image in PS. This is the 2000’s and I assume it.

Right.  As someone (obviously really really famous ;-) ) said, "The harder I work, the luckier I get."

But I don't see why the issue came up of whether someone is or is not a nice person.  Talk about someone's work, offer opinions about the work, but unless the work is somehow related to the photographer's personal behavior, why inject something like that here?

Jan as you know also opportunities can be made to happen.   Annie wasn't in the right place at the right time by accident.  She was in the right place because have happenstance not luck.   People need to be aware that you have to go hunt the opportunity and take the time to be in the space.  Whether that space takes off is a whole other story.
