The Dark Side Of The Lens

i heart this video...

most folk don't even know who we are, what we do or how we do it,
let alone how to pay us for it
i never want to take this for granted so i try and keep motivation simple, real, positive
if i only scrape a living- at least it's a living worth scraping
if there's no future in it, at least it's a present worth remembering

for fires of happiness and waves of gratitude
for everything that brought us to that point on earth at that moment in time
to do something worth remembering with a photograph or a scar
i feel genuinely lucky to 'hand on heart' say i love doing what i do
and though i may never be a rich man
if i live long enough, i'll certainly have a tale or two for the nephews
and i dig the thought of that
