dream job

water supply is out tonight. came home to find that the water main was broken and i resorted to using my bottled water to cook some instant noodles for dinner. i hope they fix it by tonight or i won't be able to shower and sleep.

still waiting to hear back and the anticipation is killing me.

in the meantime my loneliness and heartache is slightly alleviated by watching lots of animal behaviour on nat geo. the hunter and hunted is showing now and they have great footage of animals and for the first time i've seen, they filmed the camera man filming the creatures from only centimeters away (so third person perspective- makes it that much more thrilling because now you know they don't just dangle a camera on a long rod). and it wasn't just ants they were capturing on film- they jumped into the ocean with a whale shark and a group of sharks swiming close by, shoved a camera into the face of the anaconda, waded into the swamp with crocs only feet away.

working for nat geo has always been my dream job but i can't take good pictures and i think i might be a little afraid to swim with sharks so where do i start?

you know what...start with a little street photography..that'll get your juices flowing.. go to www.lightningfield.com as well as the links on that site... pick up that little digital camera of yours because that's all it takes. A little spark of imagination, tilt of the angle, click of the shutter, and you'd have captured the world in a moment. cheer up, girl.
