Tom,
What an AMAZING post ! Wow ... telling it like it is.
I remember saving my money from working for my family for $2.00/hr at the family gas station when I was around 11 yrs old, to take a 30 day historical bus tour across the United States around 1981. For such an event I was armed with what I believe was one of the 1st Kodak "Disc Camera's". It was my mother's and believe me the film was EXPENSIVE to buy and to develop. However, it was the perfect size for my trip. To this day, I have a photo I will never forget from that camera. It as an almost straight-up shot of the Twin Towers. I went to the top that day ... other amazing shots followed (from an 11 yr old with an eye to shoot photos). I sadly enough I ran out of film shortly after making it to the east coast ...
My talent was never developed or explored due to the bottom line back then being, and for many years later in my life, the cost of equipment for taking photos, and the cost for developing photos, were cost prohibitive to me.
I've been shooting photos for years with whatever I've had at the time with amazing results with cheap equipment.
I am now looking forward to developing a talent, that was always lying dormant in side of me ... waiting to be developed
