Being a professional photographer comes with pressure.  Probably mostly from within.  Not always though.  Do I want to see any bad images out there to reflect my skill or lack of it?

There are always times when photography should come second.  Family time is precious and there are few times as our children grow up that we can spend that quality time together…….. but I must take my camera…… I must…… you never know when that killer shot will show you an opportunity.

True.

Fairgrounds are so much fun, especially as a child (we had three kids with us), the colour is amazing, the speed, the screams, the laughter, the food.  They are great fun to shoot too, but quite challenging.  I wanted to take a few images but still keep the balance with spending some of that quality time together.
