I dunno - but I've never had any problems with hanging my own stuff on my own walls. I can see the idea that "I've never taken the perfect shot" - but I also realize that i never will.My photography is an expression of who I am - most artists are introverted, and I am no exception - but if I can't project my "ME" in my own home, I'm really fighting a losing battle. I would venture to say that a lot of us do the photography thing to express ourselves - because it's difficult to do so in any other fashion - so why should we not project that image in our own homes? When someone comes into my home, I've got "ME" all over the walls - so I don't have to explain who "I" am in a one-on-one basis. My photos are an escape from having to deal with it - my "ME" is on the walls - why else take the photos? You gotta show them somewhere, and what's more comfortable than your home ground?
