I have been so lucky as a photographer, I’m surrounded by people in the photography community who want nothing but for you to improve. They share tips, advice, and even equipment.

I’ve been given a variety of things over the time I’ve been taken photos. Camera bags, tripods, filters, triggers, and even camera lenses and cameras!

I’m terrible at receiving gifts, kindness, and compliments, but I always truly appreciate it when someone takes their time to help me in anyway, even with just a little compliment or bit of advice.

The world is full of “bastard coated bastards with bastard filling” (Thankyou Dr. Cox!) and people being generous like this just makes the world a little less bastardy. And I intend to (and have done) keep up the generosity chain!
