What is the old mage in the photography circle like?

The word "old mage" is not a strict definition, but a title for a group of photographers, and there are still some derogatory elements in most people.

They are not really old, they don't really know how to use expensive photographic equipment, and they don't necessarily know much about photographic equipment and photographic parameters. Old wizards have two basic characteristics:

The first is that their aesthetic ability is relatively basic and elementary, but at the same time they will be more confident, which is the first basic feature. But a person with such characteristics can never be called an old mage. He may just be a beginner in photography, or he may just be an ordinary amateur.

Therefore, there must be a second characteristic-although his aesthetics are very elementary, he looks down on others, that is to say, he is inexplicably confident, which is usually manifested as being very rude to some new photographers or so-called "young people", with a discriminatory and demeaning attitude.

Avoid becoming an old mage:

In fact, it is very simple, that is, first, the pursuit of art is endless, and we must constantly strive for progress. Secondly, we must be modest and prudent, knowing that there are people outside, and the afterlife is terrible. Young people's photography skills are not necessarily worse than yours, and they should be willing to learn from anyone.
