What kind of Wildlife Photographer Are "YOU"

I guess I will jump first. Not a spring chicken myself. hopefully everyday is an improvement for your health.

You & I are the only brave ones. Richard, Charles, Stan….where are you?

Maureen you might have to wait
Only photos I've got of me are ancient or like the ones I've posted, head down, backside up taking a photo.
I'll see what I can muster.

There's much more interesting things to photograph in wildlife
But then suppose some would say I fit that bill

Me and my best buddy.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery Maureen, I will share a photo when I have time to take one, seldom do I appear in a photo and nothing recent for sure.
I've had my share of back pain after falling from a tractor in 1996 and having a compression fracture that should have required surgery. My Doctor fitted me with a upper body cast that I wore for 6 months and my back fused together around the injury. I was paralyzed from the waist down for a short time but as soon as possible began standing, then taking steps that months later turned into miles. My Doctors advice was to always work hard, never take a desk type job and when I had pain start walking. I honestly didn't believe him at the time but it has been good advice for me. I still work on my farm with livestock and am a painting contractor that keeps me climbing, lifting and walking constantly. My most painful times are sitting through a lecture lasting more than an hour, flying in a plane or riding in a car that is driven by someone else. The more I walk the better I feel and often pain free.

Like most photographers, I'm rarely in the picture. This one is six years old, time hasn't helped much.

Me in Banff about 5 years ago; not *too* much has changed except more gray and that hoodie died Taken by the other half on her phone...LOL

Don’t you think we all need to post a real picture of ourselves? I would love to see all your faces & it will help me with my recovery, I am certain.
I will go first….iPhone shot taken on my birthday 06 May. No comments on what an old girl I am……I am certain you know I was trying to hide that from you.

Haven't seen you about Maureen. Trust all's going okay
