Replies GoodFairy13 Posted at 12:21 pm on July 3, 2009 No. You just need "the eye," its a mix of visual imagination and artistic talent. People find their own meaning in everything, photography takes almost no skill at all to someone with the eye for it. clavicle Posted at 12:13 pm on July 3, 2009 yes, but it usually greatly depends on what you're photographing. meghank91 Posted at 12:12 pm on July 3, 2009 it does but i mean, some people take beautiful pictures just by luck or with little skill. i think it's true to say that anybody can be a photographer at times. Baron Samedi Posted at 12:12 pm on July 3, 2009 Yes. Taking 1,000 photos of your friends, using Photoshop to turn them black & white, and uploading them on Myspace does not make you a photographer. lolums Posted at 12:09 pm on July 3, 2009 It takes skill and imagination. Oh, and imagination is a great skill. Just a skill you can't learn. Charolastra Posted at 12:05 pm on July 3, 2009 Of course it takes talent to capture a still event to a greater emotional depth than others could. There's so much techniques, forms and compositions involved. To say it's just taking a photo is highly insulting to those in the profession.
