Has anyone seen any of his recent work thats currently being exhibited? It's fantastic and I can only admire his skill and patience.
He said in an interview that he can sit for 7 hours or so waiting for the right shot, I thought how lucky you are, not only could I not physically sit for that long without moving and/orscreaming with pain, but I don't think I'd feel safe either.
Do women feel less able than men to spend this much time on a hobby, let alone the money for the equipment? Even in a relatively well populated area I wouldn't feel safe, even if it was from someone who'd never left the playground making some stupid comment about the length of my lens, let alone sitting in a hide in a less populated place, I'd be afraid of being robbed at the very least and would certainly fear for my personal safety.
I also wouldn't feel able to spend that much time and money on something just for me, when I was younger, it would be time away from home and what would I be facing when I got back, not having much money and feeling like what spare cash I did have should be spent on home and family.
Is this just me, my PTSD and guilt trips, or do thers feel the same?
