Default Playing it safe TOO safe

There's an old pro who sometimes comes to the camera club and every time without fail, he's dismayed by how unbelievably safe amateur photographers are about their work, their equipment but above all, about their creativity.

I must admit, he has a point. Pro's have clients and must fulfill a brief while amateurs have total freedom to take artistic and creative license with whatever subject matter and its interpretation.

You'd think given the opportunity we'd grasp it with both hands...
