Which is 100% voluntary but it's not like I've been doing this very long and I'm willing to do anything it takes just to get my work out there. I was very excited when I saw this opportunity.
This is the position:
I'm a hard-working and exhausted IT Tech who works 10 hour shifts from a dark home office forty+ hours a week with zero outdoor enjoyment and all the curtains drawn. (For coolness mostly.) Fortunately the 10 hour shifts allow me three days off instead of two. I discovered my love of wildlife photography very recently. I've only been doing it for a few months and I'm using my very first DSLR:
There is a pretty significant list of birds I will be able to photograph, and many I already have.
This opportunity means a lot because it's my first step in getting my name out there as a somewhat professional photographer. I don't intend to take my 50 year old ass and try to forge a career change full of glorious success doing what I love so much. I do intend to enjoy it on my days off...and if I can make something of it to enjoy during retirement where I will be living out my days where I grew up in Louisiana...then I will consider myself a lucky old bird. For now I intend to spend all the time I can doing this, until my body tells me STOP IT, BITCH.
But for now, on this date and at this time, I feel so content.
And that's what's important, I think.
