If you manage to pull off some prints and photographs that are better then those being sold for 4-6,000 online, does one self celebrate and keep going
Keep going where? Sell them, make some money, and then make more that are just as good. It’s not a real story of “making a better print” unless there’s money to go with where the mouth is.![]()
Who says its about money? If i can take a photo thats better then most of what i see on Magnums store front... do i be the idiotic fanboy and consider myself to be trash because im not "credentialed" like them...
Or do i kick back and enjoy the fact?
I'm glad you've sorted out which side is up on your paper and have made great strides in printing. Good luck to you in the new year.

“People always clap for the wrong things.”I don't see any relationship between sales and quality of work. None, zero. But that's just me, everyone looks at that differently. Keep in mind that Vincent Van Gogh couldn't sell any of his paintings during his lifetime, even though his brother Theo was an art dealer. Other artists knew he was a great artist, but no one wanted to buy anything from him. It's not any different w/ any other art form, photography or otherwise.
Becoming dead helps though. That seems to work pretty well. Gives us all something to shoot for.
that are better
How do you define 'better'?
