I finally figured out what it will take to call myself an artist instead of a photographer. But I have to move to Down Under first, and recruit 5,000 willing subjects.

It's simple really, Chris. Just take a few crowd photos and do the rest in Photoshop.

That kind of 'event' really does say a lot about the value of the sort of stuff that is deemed art. Of course, it might just be envy because I can't find anyone willing to do it for free. The modelling, that is.
