I'm 22. I do a lot of artistic crap. Supposedly I'm pretty good. You let me know.

Couple things: you don't suck at photography because you don't have a nice camera, you suck because you suck. If you're a purist and think that Photoshop is the devil... Well, that's just sad. It really is.

If you put "photography" in your interests in flickr... that's like writing a biography on a band and saying they liked to make music... it's thoroughly retarded.
