Observations From Today

August 20th, 2009 by don | Comments Off | Filed in As a Business, As a Hobby, As a Passion, Photography, Why

I was in the office today and took my camera as is my habit.  I had lunch with soneone who works for my company, but in a different building downtown.  He noticed the camera, and asked me about it.  Seems that he has a nice Nikon, but does not use it anymore because he does not have time with work and all.

After work, I went to try to get some new pictures of one of my favorite churches in Downtown Houston (Christ Cathedral), but it was closed. While I was taking pictures of a bee in some flowers, two other photographers came up.  We got to talking a bit, and I described the church to them, as they were up from Corpus Christi.  One of them had decided that she wanted to be a professional photographer, and sat down, learned a bit, bought some gear, and opened shop up last year.  She says she is doing quite well with it now and is having the time of her life.

I think that today further illustrates the point I was trying to get across in my last post.
