Photography, a stress buster.

Hi guys.

I have been a Photographer for over 3 years now, I had a job up to last October I was bullied, put down, more work put on me, I made mistakes which got worse the more this happened, so one day I just blew my top I decided then that enough is enough, they told me to go home and think about it, I never went back after quitting.

Now I am free and happy taking pictures was the way I got though I would go an hour before work, now I can go when I like and it is the best thing I did nearly stress-free :).

If I could make a living this way I would be in heaven, I will not stop it keeps me walking as well, win-win :).

Big Hugs.

Shirleyanne.

Hi Shirleyanne

How lovely. You are so good why don’t you submit your work to nature magazines. They feature work like yours. For only 3 years you have a natural talent for this.

Pursue this as a career if you can handle the stress of deadlines. If not...why not sell them on line via your own website??

You could make them to order sizes and ship them out yourself.

They are so beautiful I know they would sell.

Best wishes for this endeavor.

That is lovely :) I wish I saw birds like that in our garden. I spend hours watching them.

May I just remind you if your not aware Shirleyanne members can only post one picture or image per 24 hours. The reason for this is to help stop the news feed on forum issues from getting over full :) with 34k members their questions or queries need to be at the top of the news feed when at all possible.

But please feel free to post a daily photo if you like it really does help cheer us all up I'm sure. I know it made me smile thank you :) xx

PS I sent you a pm about locking your posts if you wish to do that.

Beautiful bird cowsrock! I enjoy photography too, I have to use a tripod most of the time now because of tremors and twitches. I spend time down in my garden taking pictures of the squirrels and birds down there, on the days I can manage the stairs, (the council in their wisdom put us in an upstairs flat and will not move us into a downstairs or a bungalow even though I walk with crutches or sometimes even use a chair).

Keep up with the photography even if it's only for yourself, anything to make you feel better.
