That's his point. Some people don't want to grow and create, they want to relate, to transmit. I have absolutely no desire to make high-contrast lighting photos because they're "edgy," nor do I want to take "mysterious" photos of models intended to impress the viewer with its ambiguity.

When I see something I think is interesting, I want to be able to preserve it , for myself and for my friends. That's the difference between an artist and a hobbyist.
