Amazing, considering it is the legions of amateurs that make it possible for the pros to buy equipment. William Robb ========= Most of us here are amateurs. There are very few on this list who make any money on their photography. And there is an additional group who might make a few bucks on it a year, but only sell a photography to five a year. They would still be classed as amateurs by most, and probably even themselves.
