@kaylinart - I agree. There is no substitute for hard work. There are no free meals and even talented artists have to work hard to come up with their masterpieces.. Unfortunately, people tend to look at the end result and envy the artist without going into how much sweat and blood the artist has put into his creation.
When I picked up a camera for the first time (not counting those point and shoot generic cameras), I could not even photograph a stuffed animal! I produced several photos where I had performed a guillotine operation (cutting the head off in my photos) because I was shaking the camera when clicked. From there, it has taken me 2 hard years to come to a stage to be able to capture wild animals and birds!

Thanks for one more thought provoking and motivational blog. I really like the simple way and words in which you explain these concepts which, Gurus have taken whole books to explain.

I have posted couple of funny blogs about wildlife (my funny bone must be acting up 😝 ). If you find time, please visit my blogs. Your comments would be very welcome. Thanks
