Maybe, but that's life sometimes. I'd say it's more accurate than not, I can see myself in described in there, not 100% but close. What's missing though is the reasons that it may be so. Photography for me is my passion, the virtual total scope my artistic endeavor and my escape to some extent, but it's all done on stolen time effectively. If you're busy with work, kids, your personal relationship, general household duties and the cash you make seems to be consumed wholly just to keep things running then time spent on photography is nothing but a luxury. When I get the opportunity to shoot these days it's always rushed, I bring along a tripod but rarely use it, opting to make the best of the situation then run rather than just walk by. When you are out with kids in tow the last thing that you want to do is try to concentrate on making the perfect shot as they are becoming more and more frustrated with being stuck in the same spot. So yeah I have lot's of excuses for myself but I'm sure it's not just me that's hemmed in photographically like this. Talking photography and gear fills in the gaps to a small extent when you can't actually get out and shoot, it's something I enjoy and it's easy to do with the other constraints in place so I don't consider it wasted time at all, sharing ideas and views about photography is important too IMO. Probably too much said already but that's my take :) Cheers, -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
