Peter,
Well not so much as being kind as to my reaction to that image. You're being modest. Yes we can all learn to do most things and after a while become accomplished, but there is a a definite divide between talent and experience. Few examples, tightrope walking, juggling, kayaking, motor racing ad infitum.
It's knowing intuitively what you need to adjust to compensate for anything needing improvement. There are obviously degrees of talent as in all things. Looking through some of your images and I believe you're definitely up there.
I repeat, when's the book coming out?
