Portfolios

Abstract

One can learn a great deal from the great photographers of the past. It is important for a photographer to notice the mistakes that were made and to concentrate on the methods great photographers used to become successful. There are no specific rules, no particular 'wrongs' or 'rights' in photography. Therefore, as every individual photographer has an own, original taste in different styles of photography, many photographers often differ from and criticize others' work. Thus, works of photographers of the past can either be inspiring or samples of what should not be done. Either way, there are lots to be learned from the history of photography.
