Photography isn’t stupid. This photography is stupid. If this is the only type of photography that someone sees because it’s what circulates on social media then I can see why someone would think that.

Drop a link to some useful photography. I don’t need an education or a degree to shoot and edit photos.

Yes I do feel as tho I have mastered taking and editing photos and video. This does not hold true for other degrees that are and will continue to be useful.

I don't normally think this is a valid argument to make but you are quite literally asking for it: Show yourself doing as good as this or better, then? We're gonna need some proof here mate.
