I would call them landscape photographers.
That sounds sarcastic but is not in any way meant as such, i have always had a very simplistic view of things in general.
I also would like to point out (using your driver analogy) that i am a fork lift truck driver (among other things) and as such would be skilled in driving fork lift trucks. No one in their right mind would assume that i can drive a bus because i have an FLT license
As an absolute beginner i do find the opinions in this thred really interesting and feel like i am outside looking in.
point taken though.
