First of all, sorry if I made a mistake writting the title, as I'm not english. This warning passed here is a little thing I lived this week.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, we all know that as artist. What I find beautifull, is not always the opinion of others. So I went and visited a gallery of photographies and there was one exhibition showing the work of a great artist. But after looking at all the pictures, taking notes on some of them even. I have came back home just wondering what this guy took that was so great. Most of the picture I saw where over contrasted. My friends, artists also, but in different fields all commented that my work deserved alot more than the one we just looked at.

Now being modest I don't believe my work is worth much compare to some of the great artists showing their shots here on Renderosity. But i'll finish my editorial by asking a question.

Who decides what's good and what's amateur?
What's worth looking and what deserve to be put in exhibition?
