Yes, but not in that order: motivation, talent, motivation, training, motivation, talent, motivation, money. :-)

Same way you get to Carnegie Hall...practice, practice, practice. Experiment, learn what different settings and post processing can accomplish. See what happens when you take the same pic with different f-stop, exposure time, or iso. Photography is mostly about the light, and different settings present the light in different ways.

Many years of experience which can be translated as practice, practice, practice.

Pageva, we of course all have our opinions on this.
Mine?: money has absolutely NOTHING to do with it.
And training has more to do with it than talent, but they are pretty intertwined. It would be difficult to reach your potential without training in some way.
I would not weigh motivation so highly, as a desire to do well, in and of itself may not help much either.
You need to be trained to see composition, though the talented see it better, and have more vision than others. ;-)
