Almost 3 years have past since I was taking pictures full time

Today I thought to give it a try............the set up was already there . after searching for 15 minutes to figure out how to turn the camera on ;) I looked and I never turned it off! :# But since its electrical connected so no worries about batteries.
Then it took another 15 minutes to figure out how to work it :D But in the end it came out okay. now I have several more I want to take.

.
What experiences have you had? what was the longest time you stopped taking images and then went back?

    I'm not a photographer, but you certainly do a great job.

    After losing one job back in Summer 2024, I thought I was going to be done for a while. I bring my set up to some of the local shows and usually get a couple of requests there.

    Wonderful photo, Stefanie.

    You've always had a penchant for photography as displayed on these forums going back a 'few' years.

    All the best with the full time gig.

    Lovely coin and photos.

    I love travel and wildlife photography, and have been doing it since the 80’s off and on, but I’ve only just started photographing my coins. I need a lot of practice. Lighting is tricky.

    Animals are easier. 🤣
