>>3656807I got your point. My problem really is just his attitude towards his own skill. If someone with expensive and high quality gear knows what they're doing, and they choose to take low quality JPEGs for some reason (even if it's just for the sake of being different), that would strike me as stupid. But it wouldn't make me lose all respect for them.
With this guy it's different. He's not only stupid in that one regard. His stupidity spans ages and universes, and it's only surpassed by his impertinence. It's like he is completely oblivious to his own inability and the fact that the few good photos he actually took were more or less coincidence.
btw I'm saying this without believing in talent, and that just makes it worse if you ask me. I honestly believe if you're not mentally disabled, you can learn this stuff so long as you put your mind to it. But no, Ken was born a god of photography. He was exceptional and superior from birth, even impressing the nurses at the maternity ward. There is no need for him to learn. He is a generous teacher who asks for nothing more than 99 of your hard earned dollars monthly.
