[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 473512, member: 6277"] I started in photography as a hobby in the 1970s and progressed very fast till I quit my job as a TV engineer and went full time into photography. I made good money and really enjoyed. Then One Hour Photo came out and the thought of joining my electronics background and photography was more than I could stand. Back then it was a highly technical field as well as photographic. I started in that field and progressed from a manager of one store to managing 6 stores and ending up with over 100 stores. Then I bought 2 camera stores/own hour labs. By the time I sold them I was so burned out on photography that I did not pick up a camera for 10 years. I then decided there were a few things I needed to document so I got a little bridge camera. That was pretty much it. I needed more and more till I got back to where I am today. A photoholic. My secret? I only shoot for fun, I really don't care what other people think of my photography [I](I do like it when other people enjoy it but if you don't like my photos then it does not bother me) [/I]Yes, I still hit the wall occasionally photographically but then I get back to just going out and walking and shooting whatever I want. I also like to find long term projects to shoot over time ans those are fun. [SIZE=7]JUST HAVE FUN [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
