Photography quote
I came across this quote by Andrew Hardacre on the Photography is like Golf page of the Photowalk podcast. Apologies to those who have minimal knowledge of Golf however it is an appropriate description:
“Photography reminds me of golf. You can walk all day and get nothing. You wonder why you bother. Then you get one good shot and you can’t wait to get out again. You reminisce about your ‘birdies and eagles’ and pray for a hole in one, that magical lucky shot that you want to frame and hang. Gary Player famously said, the harder I practice the luckier I get. But most of the time it’s bunkers and bogies.”
