for most people, i'd agree completely; but for those meeting the minimum requirements, they'd probably think it was just a walk in the park ;-)

Originally posted by Here are the requirements:

* Knowledge of the principles and techniques of large format, black and white photography.
* Knowledge of published standards and guidelines for architectural, engineering and landscape documentation.
* Knowledge of film and digital photographic processes and techniques.
* Ability to communicate effectively and collaborate with others.
