Everyone has a phone these days and its easy to take pictures of anything around you these days. Some may label themselves photographer off a single picture of a plate of spaghetti, some may use phones to do things for businesses as maybe take their website photos or create videos they need on the phone used. Though i know anyone can do what they want, i just want to know what other people think about this little curiosity.

Anyone can get a really good photo that can be something you want to hang up..... eventually....sometimes it's pure luck. But no. Not everyone is a photographer

In my own opinion, Anyone can pick up a camera/phone camera and take a photo. But.... Personally, I think that It takes real ability to be able to take a photo with good composition with artistic merit.... That's not to say that only a select few can do this.... anyone can become a great photographer with practice.

i use photography as a form of art and experession. there r moments when i think there are more newbie real photographers than real good photographers. ppl rlly act like its a career that u need a phd for and unless youre stupidly good, just bc u know a few techniques that newbies dont know and can take a good shot of a person or a place, if youre just taking pics i dont think youre good. if there is nothing to transmit, if U have nothing to transmit even wether other ppl catch the meaning or not, if YOUR meaning is empty. then like, wow congrats u took a course to know what ISO is, round of applause everyone. i still care more about a teen that took a random pic of the floor with their phone and thinks thats great tbh.
its the same for paintng, sculptures etc. except youre on Monets level of art, i dont care for your art unless it actually means something to u. because i will never act blind to ppl who can do GREAT difficult things with ease, even if youre an awful person thats impressing, there r some photography techniques that many ppl cant grasp, the same as there is for other arts. but if youre just "i got thaught this technique at college" good, if youre just a good photographer that memorized a 'talent', if youre just playing by the rules then your feelings have to be there, otherwise youre just another person with a camera, and ill still care about the newbie that struggles with their lenses but feels thru their eyes and can only make good pics accidentaly than i care about your "quality"
go get hired at some company to take pics for their events and advertisements and go feel nothing, idc
if u feel a lot, if u express a lot, and also know a lot of impressive things about it then youre not a good ph youre a great fucking artist

even if so, whats so bad in it? until it doesnt minimise the others hobbies a-ka 'its not a real hobby if anyone can take a picture'' idc really
for me personally photography is the same art as any other form of it. and the main purpose of art is expressing feelings, project ur emotions and to tell some sort of story. if u r really enjoying it and its something that u WANT to do, im not a judge here then. who i am to tell u off?

Everyone has a camera, but not everyone is a photographer (as that requires actual know-how, practice, training, etc)
