Well I do stand beside you on your issue with many not knowing how to meter, and blaming their equipment and or using photoshop to bridge the gap between their skillsets and the true craft of photography (digital of film).
I would say that with the advent of digital photography, that a lot of people now dabble in photography now but most are wanting what everyone these days seem to want. Instant success with no skill needed.
I would say though that such an attitude only reaps photos that look processed. Work that dosnt make the grade, as their soul is not in the end product.
If thats what your trying to say...I would whole heartedly agree.
Reading your posts, I think there is a bit of a language barrier between us. Is english your first language?
