Making a career in photography these days is tough, what with Ai and image manipulation et 'al.  I was fortunate to get a job when someone trusted my enthusiasm and I learnt everything 'on the job' back in the day of Black and White negatives and Prints. I cut my teeth as a Press photographer!

If you want a career in photography now,  be prepared!  The way the world works these days can be so disconcerting - be creative and believe you have something to offer with genuine enthusiasm. Build your strength with people you trust and think altruistically while learning.. It's not all about money!

With experience comes wisdom and I've got more to do before I leave this mortal coil. Firstly it's not what camera you have, it's the way you use it and the person you are that helps to illustrate the world 'you' see. 

If you're keen to learn something about photography from someone who's been doing it for 40 yrs and want to make an image that says 'this is how i feel' get in touch. Money up front - refund if you take a photograph that someone doesn't look at twice!

..and personally: My wife (Kerrie) and I are 'mad' garden makers.  We've opened our garden to the public for the National Garden Scheme (NGS) charity for 15 years, raising money for local and National Cancer Charities.  We also provide talks to gardening groups/societies in our spare time.. Very rewarding. Challenges shared, so much learned (-;

As a photographer, I NEVER sat outside the right house waiting for the wrong person to leave - 'paparazzi' - I prefer to wake and marvel what might be new in the garden  😁
