Picasso had the talent and learned the technique like most other artists in all categories. If someone thinks he got the talent then he's not included in my replay.
Besides, is it a talent good enough for a hobby or profession?. for a hobby there is no issue, we can be at any level we can be. but for a profession that we depend on to make living, things are totally different.
But since this thread is "A practice of silliness", I find it silly that some people take on photography as profession thinking that they could learn it all from A-Z.
