What leads to Success?
One thing that I see a lot of on my workshops – is that people get out of their photography what they put into it.
Now, I found this today and it made me laugh because this can be applied to everything in photography, work, art and life.
I was talking to a friend the other day and while we were chatting, they had a look at my web site, and went into the Portfolio section. My friend said – ‘one thing is very clear – you’ve worked very hard to get those images’. She was right. If I was honest with myself, I’d admit to knocking myself out trying to get the images I’ve made over the past 10 years. There’s not really been any motivation behind it – except that I felt ‘I had to’. I just love it and I can’t not make images.
Anyway, I really loved this little video. It’s very inspiring.
Thanks for posting, Bruce. You’re right, this was very inspiring.

Amen to that! I think you have to love what you do in the first place. And then it is work, persistence etc. – which should be easy because you love what you do… I feel sorry for each one who doesn’t have a passion of any kind.
