Mastering your Craft....

This weekend I took a few images and played with my friend Linda... I have set up a place at my home to do photos and still working on it...watching it manifest into something great!!!! So someone -my friend Rob- said to me one time about being good at many different things but not concentrating on mastering a specific craft. So the saying goes: "Jack of all trades , Master of None" found this on another link-------- "Jack of all trades, master of none" is an old saying, meaning that one is competent in a lot of things, but master of none. Such a person is also called a polymath or a renaissance man. A prime example of this personality is Leonardo da Vinci. Really is that so bad? Leaonardo da Vinci huh? In all reality it is not , but I get why Rob said that to me many years ago. As far as photography goes I need to work on mastering my craft , as much as that is possible for me anyhow. Shoot, shoot , shoot......and more shooting images. I have the eye I need to work on the lighting and stuff...stuff...see. My mind is going all the time on what I envision in my photography, paintings, etc. etc. I see it oh so clearly at times. So...maybe I need to Master the Jack of all Trades part.. :) thanks Rob!
