There are a LOT more beginners here that you/we are aware.
AND, everyone has their own desires, philosophy, and methods about photography. Many are also obsessed with "perfection".
The bad part is the members that tell you what you should be doing (usually their way).
Take what people say only as a suggestion, many will be good, many will not be applicable to what you want to do.
Paul is definitely not jumping on you though.
Hang in there... You fit, as well as I. I'm not a "pro" and not obsessed with equipment nor perfection.
My cameras are 11 and 14 years old, I don't use LR, but I have Elements (14 and 19), as well as two other OLD editors. One I'll be VERY few here have heard of or would never consider using...
Yup, a lot of people here have horses taller than mine, and many have excellent suggestions.
