Engineers and mechanics all?
 
Is it my imagination, or is there a high proportion of engineers and mechanics among our photographers?

Could this be a relic from the old days, when photography was a much more technical experience? A sort of automatic interest for people with a 'technical' brain? Even now, when it's much more 'untechnical' and digitised?

Just curious!

As far as I'm concerned this counts.
