I don't think 16k likes counts as viral in this day and age.

I'd love to hear what you meant by your title "make mistakes, make better photos, make more money"!

He would have meant that the mistake resulted in a much nicer image than the photographer otherwise would have captured and now people are asking to buy copies of it.

It is a very nice image.

Right. I was just suggesting that the mantra didn't make sense.

Hmmm, pretty simple, guy makes mistake taking a photo, makes better photo because of the mistake and ends up selling more photos because of the mistake he made.

Right. I was just suggesting that it makes no sense. That 99/100 times, your "mistake" will result in a shitty image. However, pushing your limits and intentionally trying things that are new and different will sometimes result in a keeper, but more importantly you learn from those experiments

I was just irked by the "I made a MISTAKE and now I'm making more money". That's ridiculous.

It happened in the context of the story. I agree that it's not worth over thinking though
