Default I've got the photo bug!
Hi guys, I'm Ori and I'm addicted.
seriously. completely. addicted.
yesterday I did a shoot and I've encountered a problem. the kid's dad wanted to finish up and go while I wanted to continue and take more and more and more photos
I'm not saying I didn't get good photos or anything remotely like that, I just, as always, had fun!
soo... do you have these moments when you understand you have a "problem"?

At the moment, I think I am more addicted to the DPS forum than photography itself. I have some fun shoots coming up, so hopefully that will change.

For a while there all I could think about was photography, how to get another project and what I could try (or buy) next. Ever since the band stuff has started up again, however, my interest in pursuing jobs or projects has lessened to a healthy level, but I still love doing shoots!

Raising hand! Yup I suffer from this addiction too! Be prepared to never have enough money or equipment, as some brand new "must have" pops up on a regular basis. That is unless you have lots of money to burn. LOL

Welcome to DPS!

Addicted? No way, I can stop taking pictures anytime I want too! I do not even need to look at camera ads or photography books or equiptment ads or reviews if I choose not to, I just never had the inclination to stop doing it, but I aint addicted, not me.

I kicked the habit for about 30+ years when I discovered motor cycles and girls, but it came back with a vengance about 7 years ago.

motor cycles and girls can definitely help as a cure!

I've been doing this for a number of years now and still haven't decided if it's a passion or an obsession!
