Hence we get a lot of these:

People actually ask me how I got into photography and assume I went to school for it.  Actually I am completely self taught and the lone photography course I took was called History of Photography.  It was obviously a chronology of photography with a heavy focus on Weston.  Weston photographed the sun drenched landscapes of Mexico.  I photograph the less sun drenched urban jungle of the Upper East side.  Otherwise, we are exactly the same.
