A lot of great answers, but I’ll answer it this way. In this digital age, anyone can get lucky if they take enough photos. Amateurs take a lot of photos and find the good ones after the fact. The professional sees the picture BEFORE taking photos and doesn’t rely so much on luck. Do pros get lucky? Sure. Do pros make mistakes. Absolutely. As others have mentioned, it’s that eye. Im not a good photographer… In fact I consider myself a delusional amateur because I know I rely on luck. And I have fun with it. 😊
