As a photographer I know I constantly struggle with putting my images 'out there'. It's very easy to get caught up in the trap of getting the 'right' images together or getting your portfolio just perfect before you send it out. In truth, we'll always be creating and updating our book, so why not share what you got with the world while you focus on getting better? I know I got more done in the past with far less equipment than I have now, so I totally understand the trap. Back then I thought I'd be a professional when I got better equipment. I stopped waiting. In the end it all just boils down to good old fashion fear. I don't worry so much about the fear because it will always be there. Best advice just do the thing that you've been avoiding and fear will take care of itself. Good Luck Rodney W. http://learningfromthemasters.blogspot.com/ I agree with so much of this article.

I wrote a blog post on the topic yesterday, titled, <a href="http://www.dilvie.com/2008/03/going-pro-shoot-what-you-love.html" rel="nofollow">"Going Pro - Shoot What You Love"</a>. I think trusting your own vision is the most important step a pro photographer can take.
