Hmmm.. video can help.

After many years, I try to avoid doing photography work for free, and here's why.

A lot of photographers, start taking photographs because they think they can easily sell them. However, I give you some thoughts about some of the obstacles you will need to overcome. Selling photographs it's not easy, and it requires some thought and perseverance.

John Diephouse has 40 years of experience in photography. In addition, one of these images you are about to listen to was howling at the Michigan governor's mansion in Lansing,Michigan. John is an accomplished photographer and I'm sure you will enjoy listening to this discussion. Also, you can follow the YouTube video which shows his work.

A short discussion on whether or not I should commit to shooting in black-and-white photography. It's not about giving up color photography, but rather trying to decide if the frustration is worth the effort. Listen into my thoughts.

So why do photographers quit , here are my thoughts.
