    "i could appreciate it, and it was an amusing joke in the office, but the potential for his work to really be recognised was shrouded by his ignorance."

    ha, i hear that a lot. many seniors in both photography, graphic and other design disciplines that i know or spoke to have the same attitude.

    Often this is also related to fear, fear of having their work exposed to an anonymous global audience and even more fear of their work being stolen by competitors.

    Many people of the older generation see danger and discomfort in the internet rather then new possibilities, like it being the cheapest way of selling your skills and work and to receive recognition by ways of feedback.
