Those guys with the high dollar equipment still need to learn how to use all that equipment and how to process all those images to get them published in a magazine. There are plenty of people that have all that high dollar equipment, but few people that get their pictures in a magazine. All that high dollar stuff is not a guarantee that you will take world class pictures. You still have to learn your craft and it is not easy, even if you do spend the big bucks. If I was lucky enough to have an AP mount and RC scope and the biggest Sbig CCD made, I still would take a lousy picture. One of you rich guys send me all that stuff and I'll prove it to you;-)
