out of curiosity, do you guys who spend big money on camera and gear do it just as a hobby/passion or are you's involved in photography as a career?

im familiar with pro-sumer types, but do you intend to eventually do it for work?

my brother is an aspiring professional photgrapher and has sunk so much money into gear it makes me wonder if its worthwhile in a fiscal sense.

Just a hobby for me (although work did pay me $200 for two photo's last year)

heres my previous photos enlarged as requested and another.

this pics just my sax with a model light pointed at it.

Yeah, Clint is the one teaching me a fair bit about photography. Good to see you in here finally, mate!!

I'm doing it for a hobby, even though I havent sunk too much money into my camera just yet. A fair bit is going in soon, though. Might look into doing it professionally one day, but I'm no where near that stage at the moment. In a few years, maybe.

This is a great shot, I love the subtleness and discretion but you can still tell from the lines that this is an R32 GTR. Now if you could take the number plates off... :)

I'm lucky in the fact that i have a couple of mid range lenses here at work i can borrow from time to time to try stuff with. All i've spent so far is the camera (D90), replaced a lens I dropped after some beers, and a nifty fifty. Building a house so I'm not in a position to spend up just yet, nor am i skilled enough to really reap the benefits from the gear yet. I wouldn't mind getting a good tele soon though.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff
