bogleric Member 192 posts Joined Jun 2005 Location: North Carolina, USA More info | Jun 28, 2006 06:43 | #1 I have been doing professional photography for about 7 years now but don't have any professional memberships such as the PPA, etc. I was wondering what people thoughts and experiences have been with such professional organizations and if they are really worth the money. ....photography, the art of seeing something with a new set of eyes.....capturing the ordinary in an extraordinary way!

It's the end result that makes the difference in what you deliver to them. My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

Jun 28, 2006 20:26 | #7 thanks for the input... This is what I was thinking, but every now and then I hear some strange things. Those membership fees seem quite steep to say... I belong to something and most don't even monitor quality, etc. ....photography, the art of seeing something with a new set of eyes.....capturing the ordinary in an extraordinary way!
