Nathan Can you repeat the question, please?  More info Post edited over 8 years ago by Nathan. | Jul 31, 2015 00:59 | #1 http://www.theonion.com …omised-professional-50955 “He didn’t have any lamps in there or even a light meter—he just used the flash on the camera,” Damon said. “I should have known this **** was a complete fraud when I showed up at his so-called studio. He was working out of half his garage with what had to be a bedsheet hanging down. Seriously, his whole setup was crammed between his car and a concrete wall. Dammit.” YES. I know this is from The Onion. Taking photos with a fancy camera does not make me a photographer.
