QUOTES
▶ Today's cameras are so flipping good you can put them in program mode and take good pictures all day long.  If you're going to spend some time investing in getting good at photography and getting better pictures, you need to spend your time learning post-processing. You need to get good at Photoshop and at Lightroom and using plugins.
▶ John Robert Williams is saying, no post-processing is equal to putting groceries on the dinner table. And, Oh, the chef never cooked the food. Guess we don't need chefs, you know?
▶ But if you can give me a good starting place, I can get you to an incredible image. And it's just like in cooking. You start with good ingredients.
