well i wouldn't be that harsh, it's just when you have limitless options its hard to get a scene to look just right. i know plenty about photography, just recreating it gets to be difficult esp. when its not too intuitive. i hated manipulating lights in 3dsmax--applying emitters to geometry makes so much more sense to me.
its just my opinion, but i didnt want this to get into a debate, i wanted it to be a gallery.
