There are three things that have no place in any business: ego, arrogance, and entitlement.
The photographer who expects everything for free, is envious of others’ success, or has an ego so inflated that they are unable see past their own faults is a sure-fire way to sabotage their image. It may get them so far, but toxic traits don’t go unnoticed for very long.
Instead, let’s strive for self-esteem, confidence, and humility. You’re likely to get more with honey, than with vinegar.

EGO , ARROGÃNCIA E DAR E TER DIREITOS
You go, girl! You are spot on. Glad you spoke out. Wish more would see this and take it to heart. btw, turns out a guy in one of my photo clubs knows Brian. He is Dave Wilson from Dripping Springs, TX. I told him that I follow you and your blogs/work. Keep up the good work! You are so helpful to us in the photo community.

Everyone has their own take on photography. I love looking at what other people are doing. I absolutely hate the constant criticism of other peoples work. It is self destructive
Narcissism, as in all the selifies, taken with the “mePhone” and others is a harmless but annoying waste of viewers’ time. (“Here we are/I am, standing in front of something you cannot see, because we are/I am standing in front of it”) Another and newer annoyance is holding up an iPad (or its equivalent) such that it blocks the view of others.
Appreciate this advice. It’s a good reminder to focus on your own craft, make appropriate adjustments based on your inspirations/critics and invest quality time in your own work.
