For me at least, photography is a secondary activity that I do during the “real” activity - going for a walk, getting outside, etc. Photography does provide a secondary motivation to doing that activity.
I mostly do bird photography, with a 600mm lens, so the activity pretty much has to be just the bird photography, because it is a heavy bag to carry and I have back problems.
I see. Do you have an interest in birds outside photography? If yes, I hope you’re still able to get out there and enjoy them, even if you’re not doing it with a camera. If not, do you see yourself getting interested in a different subject? I’ve been chasing bees and flowers as the opportunity arises and I could see that being a pretty good outlet.
Yeah I do like watching them and listening to them. I should just try going out without a camera. Haha I have a macro lens I have done a small amount of bug and flower photography with, but haven’t done much in years.
I can never get up the energy to go out and do any anymore.
