I too, am wondering about how to adjust my photography so that I can stop shooting for others, and shoot for myself. I don't think that you have missed anything by not moving toward the luxury photo-safari end of things. You'd need to deal with people, and people are, icky. If you can make it work, what you are currently doing would be my personal choice. Include a few small group excursions when possible, and drink your coffee in beautiful surroundings as the sun comes up. Good luck!
That last image is absolutely beautiful! (Even after all the wonderful images preceding it, it still has the ability to surprise!)
And, although this is a brave and honest confessional, I wonder how many things you’ve been a success at (certainly a loving son; a great writer and photographer…) – and if the business actually failed because it no longer fit you properly: and it really was time to (literally) move on. Still… thank you for sharing: I’m sure many can relate.
Bless you bud. Some of those words are all too close to home.
