Thank you, When you never do portraits, it really helps to have an outstanding subject.

My grand daughter will be a Senior this year and asked me if I would take senior pictures for her. Of course I said yes. Well...... I have never done portraits....., but I figured what the heck I'll give it a go!! These are my first shots. We will be doing some more shoots.

1) What's your definition of great?
If I can technically recreate something, does that make me a "great" photographer? Not necessarily.
If I'm good at marketing does that make my photographs "great"? Not necessarily.
Do my photographs tell a story, evoke an emotional response, appeal to others?
You need technical ability and artistic ability
Great photography is in the eye of the beholder.
2) No, I don't think there is a relationship between the two.
3) No, This goes back to question #1. Better equipment can help with technical aspects, but isn't going to change your artistic ability.
4) Rude comments? Some people just come across as rude, Many times they don't understand the relationship between what they said
and what they meant. and sometimes they do, you just have to consider the source.

It's a personal preference, I also always use the view finder unless I'm using a tripod, then it depends on camera position, my camera has live view through the view finder and screen. I don't worry too much about battery life as I always carry spares. (learned that the hard way)

Great composition. You have a good eye. I shoot with Nikon and Canon and have not taken pictures as good as yours. In fact this year, I have taken black electrical tape and covered up the brand and camera model just to make a point that it isn’t the equipment but rather the photographer that makes the photo outstanding.
Thank you Mike. You're funny this made me Laugh.
