About 50 percent of all the gaijin that i have met are professional photograhers. Well, they don’t really take the word professional very seriously, it’s like in movies when they say about a bank robber that “he’s a pro”. Bank robbers are by definition “pros”, they get money for what they do, there’s no one that list robbery as a hobby.
Anyway, those professional photographer are usually also professional english teachers. Then there’s the guy at Online photographer that wonders what it would look like if those guys were to give advice to famous photographers.
