Hello

I have been looking for photography courses local to me and have been struggling to find anything that inspires me. I end up finding a site and have a look at the professional teachers gallery and feel really disappointed. It might sound silly but since I joined this site, I have been on daily and seen some stunning photography by most amateurs (I hope im right as I just insulted people!!!) and it strikes me that many photos here are far superior. Surely as a pro wanting to teach you would highlight and present your best photos to show people why they should come to you.

Am I setting my standards too high or are many pro's not industry pro's at all and in fact just enthusiasts getting away with trying to be something they are not?

Also is there anyone that is a pro here or certainly not challenged by their lack of imagination that would give me some time. I am only looking to pay, not for your free time, its only fair after all!
