This aspect becomes the killer (for me).
If one seriously studies the market trends
then the photography becomes
(I don't know what word to use)
market driven; and why so much of the stock we see in use
looks canned, redundant, unreal, and pretentious.
To photograph passionately, personally
and express something visually fresh;
and then find a market for that work
remains a huge challenge;
whatever the genre.
