By no means am I a professional photographer. I had one college class in the field and that was it. I did have one very good friend here on DU who had a master's degree in photography; AndyS was his name and he taught me a lot of the technical stuff.

I have always had the photographer's eye.

I'll bet, if you picked up a basic camera, that you would find your ability returning. It might take some time, but I'm willing to bet that would happen.

Taking photos, or making photos can change your view of the world! That was something that Andy taught me.
