All athletes at the Olympic Summer Games in London must be perseverant; otherwise they wouldn’t be there. They managed to set aside everything else, trained hard and conquered challenges in order to participate in this amazing event. And if they didn’t make it this time they have to wait for another four years for the next Olympics.
How perseverant needs a photographer to be? Although photography is easy accessible for anybody and a photo is taken with a quick click on the shutter, becoming a professional photographer, a photo artist or growing as a hobby photographer demands a high amount of perseverance. It can be a process of insecurities, doubts and setbacks before improvement and success arrive. The photographers at the Olympics might be just as perseverant as the athletes they are photographing.

Wow how majectic and gorgeous…you inspire me to share some of my amateur photos of big cats taken in zoos. They wont match yours but the sheer beauty of the animals can never be lost even by the clumsiness of a “persevering” photo amateur!!!!Thks
