Me and my wife often compete in photography, but we do that playfully. We often feel creative jealousy over what the other one has discovered and done. And part of the "game" is to do something secretly from another. For example take a photo and try to hide the discovery and the taken shots, until it is too late for another to get back there and take maybe "better photos".

But one of course have deal with the jealousy, and turn it into creativity! And an important part of it is to acknowledge the great work done by others. So, in order to learn and become better, one should appreciate the goodness around us. Go out, try to take a great shot, and share it!
