I found the following video to be very inspiring. I’ve developed a passion for photography in the last year or so. I made the decision recently to study photography extensively. I want to become a better shooter. I want to develop my eye. I want to learn everything I can about composition, lighting, and all the technical details. This is where I have to slow down, be patient, and try to restrain my enthusiasm.
It all started with taking pictures of my babies. I bought a pretty good point and shoot camera, then I bought a used Canon Rebel XT off eBay and that’s when the shutterbug bit me. This may not sound very profound but let me explain how it has affected my life. I was a few weeks away from grad school. I had already been accepted and was just waiting until I could register for classes. I was planning on getting my MBA. All that is on hold for now. I still may go to grad school some time in the future, but for the moment, I have to ask myself “Why?” The only concrete reason is monetary. So let me spare you the the drama of my own inner conflict and trying to make sense of my future. At least for the time being, my goal is to be a good photographer.
