It will range from a point and shoot, to my camera phone to my Nikon DSLR. &amp;nbsp;Do I follow all the "rules" of photography, no, but then I do believe the old saying, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. &amp;nbsp;Yes some rules should be followed but then others are suggestions. I look at it as a Picasso, I am not a huge fan of Picasso Paintings but there are many people who are. &amp;nbsp;Does this mean I think Picasso wasn't good or an artist? &amp;nbsp;Not on your life, I just happen to not be a big fan of that style and that doesn't make it bad art. &amp;nbsp;Art is a very subjective field. &amp;nbsp;Another example, have you ever seen a picture and said "wow", but yet your friend goes "I don't get it" or "eww". &amp;nbsp; Some people love animal pictures and some people don't. &amp;nbsp;And that's Art.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9026574451991985677-2935523081065481235?l=karentownphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://karentownphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/2935523081065481235/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://karentownphotography.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-dont-claim-to-be.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9026574451991985677/posts/default/2935523081065481235'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9026574451991985677/posts/default/2935523081065481235'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://karentownphotography.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-dont-claim-to-be.html' title='I don&apos;t claim to be ....'/><author><name>Karen</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12665951989034265184</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_HgMRKfZIiLM/SC0ATj62KFI/AAAAAAAAACY/tohdBBBbFqE/S220/myphoto.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgMRKfZIiLM/SuR-TFINMLI/AAAAAAAAATY/V0gcsvxPBzs/s72-c/_DSC0102.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
