I did the exact opposite when I was 30; I left the pro photography madness after a ten year run and entered the IT field. I am now able to do photography when and how I choose, to my standards and no others. Based upon my own experience, I do not recommend it, especially in this day of hyper expectations, critically short deadlines and clients that cannot verbalize what they want. The all-too-important demands of my photo career greatly assisted the demise of my first marriage and was driving my second marriage towards the same result when I left. Just my own two cents worth... /Mitch Zeissler - -----Original Message----- >From: "Tristan Tom"<tristan@tristantom.com> >Sent: 1/2/02 1:17:47 PM >To: "leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us"<leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> >Subject: [Leica] Photo school or what? > >I'm toying with the idea of going to photography school.
