I really want to get back to drawing as a daily habit and see how it

me. I know from past experience that it usually has a tremendous

effect on me. And I'm sorta curious too, it being a visual act, how it'd
affect
my photography.


Apart from learning another approach to basic composition, one of the
most important things drawing classes have taught me about photography
is the importance of every individual element of the shot. In drawing
or painting, you can use "artist's licence" to subdue or even omit
extraneous detail. In photography, you're stuck with it, and it can
often detract from the subject or scene.

Drawing has made me more aware of extraneous detail and therefore how
to avoid, subdue or even harness it to improve the overall shot.

That's great!
Good for you!

Neither do I, but neither do I ever ridicule or put down the photos people
submit there, or anywhere else as you do. Critique is fine. Ridicule is
never helpful, and THAT is why you get flack from me, TP.

The credibility of your attempts to claim the moral high ground is
sadly diminished to zero by the foam that drips from your lips.

Get a grip on yourself, Mark. I have no doubt that you are a lot more
intelligent than you appear.

If you look back over the long history of my posts, you will find that I
have NEVER ridiculed someone's work that is posted in good faith. We're not
talking about the George Preddy folk of the world, here...those don't count.
When people ask for critique here, I'll sometimes post some input, but
it is never mean-spirited. If you believe otherwise, then I challenge you
to quote me in context. The only venom you'll hear from me is directed
toward those who DO riducule other's work...or troll...or make wild claims
about themselves or their photography.

You will find that I have NEVER bragged about ANY photographic endeavor or
shot.

Now TP...rather than simply throwing empty "get a grip" type enptiness, look
me up.
When you do, you'll find a distinct lack of photographic ridicule of any
legitimate (non-Preddy-type) work.
