Dear Pissed Off Photographers on Facebook

I feel your pain. "Every Monkey with an SLR calls himself a Photographer", you say? Indeed.

"Whenever someone asks me which camera I use, I reply - my eyes", you say. Ah, you must be so proud of your biting wit.

Just ignore those kids who point out that if it indeed is your eyes that are important, all you need to take pictures is your mobile phone camera, and not the tons of equipment you lug around. They just don't get photography.  

I feel your pain. Just like those monkeys, every idiot with a Facebook account (or a blog for that matter) now thinks himself profound.
