Landscape photography can be really hard, both mentally and physically speaking. I got soaked in rain numerous times, I have had my fingers almost frozen, I have lost several lenses in the wild, I have broken filters and remote timers, and waking up really early to capture that image I have in mind is also part of the journey. Overall these are the sacrifices that I have to be willing to take.
To me photography is an excellent way of expressing myself. I believe that a nice landscape photo for instance can describe quite well a certain situation, condition, or feeling. It is also a powerful tool to document your life or explain to the viewer something deep of your personality.
Capturing a special moment, editing the photo in my own way, and share it with the community brings me a lot of positive feelings. I also think that my followers enjoy my work, which is something that I really appreciate as well!
