Blood, nudity and Spanish

I am making a living at photography, it is all I do, together with teaching. That said, it could be busier and prices could be higher. I do hope the economy picks up - because it is the "bread and butter" work that funds the photojournalistic work that is my passion. I'd like to do more photojournalism. My dream is one day to return to Baghdad, now with a camera. I work for companies, individuals, newspapers, PR agencies, realtors, models: everyone who needs a picture, a portfolio, or an event shoot. My advice to others is not the usual "keep your day job", but on the other hand, "go for it and follow your passion". It's worth doing, and also, monetize the other factors, like being able to be your own boss and to get up when you like. They're worth more than you realise.
