You know, I could say the same thing. But don't tell my boss :) There is
just no substitute for self-motivation.
I remember shooting a waterfall just before the new year. I was wet, the K2
body I was holding was soaked, I'd been wiping water off the 15mm lens after
each shot. I had just learned to trust my camera bag for its weather
resistance (in retrospect, I'm seriously glad that I can!).
I'd carted the RB67 rig for 3/4 of an hour up and down the hillside to get
there and had a bloody sore shoulder from doing so (I'm not very "well-
padded", or very fit), and there was too much spray to even take the body out
from in its plastic bag (and I still had to carry it back).
Just before walking back I thought "I wish I could make a living out of this". I
would give up my 9-5 job in an instant if that were the case.
Cheers,
- Dave
