I opened up an old journal from college tonight and I'm glad I did. On the first page was the "10 commandments of photography" that our class collectively came up with one day and I must say for the most part, it's pretty right on. One thing I would add to this (looking back) is "NEVER GIVE YOUR TALENT AWAY FOR FREE".
10 COMMANDMENTS OF PHOTOGRAPHY
1. LIGHT IS ABOVE ALL ELSE
2. LEARN FROM THE MASTERS
3. KNOW YOUR EQUIPMENT
4. PHOTOGRAPH FOR YOURSELF
5. JOURNAL AND LOOK AT WORK
6. PATIENCE AND PREPARATION
7. KEEP YOUR CRAFT SACRED
8. NETWORK
9. LOVE YOUR MISTAKES
10. EVOLVE
