Hello all. My name is Scott and I live in Sydney Australia. I love photographing all wildlife but particularly birds as they are the most prevalent and I think they have this interesting aura's about them in how they move and behave. I post regularly on both Australian Geographic and National Geographic in the user submitted sections, but would love some feedback from fellow bird photographers. I am here to learn and be part of a great community.
A bit about myself, I am 20 and currently a student studying Occupational Therapy, but have been born with a connective tissue disorder called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome which limits a significant amount of my movement and daily activities. It in turn has forced me to almost stop my studies, but I have found photography to be a great activity and passion for me to follow. This is something I currently have up and running, I don't expect a donation, but it has a bit of information regarding my condition which I also like to spread the word on. http://www.gofundme.com/6kd4bo
Welcome to BPN, Scott! Your strength and passion despite your health problems is very inspiring, and I'm so happy for you that you've found photography to be a great creative outlet. This is a great place to learn and improve your photography as I'm sure you will find. Looking forward to your participation here!
Welcome, Scott!! And best wishes for dealing with the limitations that have been handed to you, with the help of your art. You'll find a few other people here who are dealing with difficulties, but it will be hard to tell them apart!
