Losing Heart

Thu Jun 25, 2009, 11:16 AM
I guess i'm not a "true deviant" if I have no journal entries, so here we go.

I'm losing heart in my photography. No one notices the skill/potential that I have, not even my own family. Sure taking pictures started off as something I did for fun, or as a time filler. But now that i'm serious about it no one notices my work.
I've been trying to get myself out there through contests and websites like DeviantArt, and I refuse to "whore" myself like those crazys on myspace.
That coupled with the fact that my equipment sucks and I don't have the financial ability to upgrade is making me think that I should just give up the whole "I wanna be a photographer" shtick.
Ah, I don't know. Maybe it really is all just a lost cause for me.

HOLY SHIT!

Alex! I've always loved your stuff! Don't worry, with college paid for and work study on it's way you'll eventually get money to get a camera. That's what I did. Hey, and any time you need me or my equipment, just let me know. I'll be there.
Aweeeee.
Thanks!
<3
I really hope you're right.

You're the dopest dope i've ever smoked.
Your kindness knows no bounds.

Don't ask me, 'What if?'. Never knows best.
Why thank you good sir.
I'll be looking forward to seeing some snazzy photographs from you in the near future?
And your constructive criticism/mentoring is always welcome of course.

That's what your mom said, before I shaved her back! ATHF

Is there some tread left on those tires, or is it just like throwing a hot dog down the hallway? Family Guy
You're quite welcome! :-)
Your photos are really good. I especially like the stormy sea one.
