Apologies in advance if this has already been discussed but has anyone read the comments from the Yahoo CEO, Marissa Mayer, regarding the new Flickr:
"There's no such thing as Flickr Pro today because with so many people taking photos with smartphones there really is no such thing as a professional photographer"
Now, I realise Flickr isn't necessarily geared towards pro photographers and with the abundance of smartphones almost anyone can take a picture and upload it, but I can't help feeling that the above comment sorta cheapens a whole profession.
You're a bit behind the news.....
