Learning From Sources Other Than Photography

Many times we look to the experts in our chosen field or profession for sage advice. Although this is a wise choice, we can also learn from other professions. During the summer I watched the Next Food Network Star. I am a competitor, and enjoy watching competitive events. As the show continued throughout the summer I watched as each contestant dealt with their shortcomings, and how they reacted to their successes. The panel of judges gave valuable advice, whether it was how they presented themselves and the food they prepared; or just giving simple business tips on how to market what they were presenting to the Food Network audience. Take the food out of the equation, insert photography, and the advice given by the panel; plus the lessons learned is something that is very applicable in everyday business/marketing.  "I Learned From That".
