This is a safe space to make the joke that your recent hobby spending on nonessential camera gear that you had to have has made you destitute. Post the thing you bought and something like this:


I've been able to merge my selfies portfolio into my exploitative homeless portrait portfolio
I can't afford the cheese for my toilet nachos photos
I don't take train tracks pictures in spite of the dangers they pose anymore, I take them because a train might hit me and end it all
I can't afford watermarks on my nature photos

I'm too poor to spend all my money and gear and become poor that way. I'm not even on the photography poor ladder. The only photography outgoings I have are the occasional €10 I spend on prints, and my €12 a month on Photoshop.

So I packed up my Salvador Dali print of two blindfolded dental hygienists trying to make a circle on an Etch-a-Sketch and headed for California.

I'm so bad at photography that i have to spend a lot of money buying things in hopes that I can eventually churn out one good photo.

My office is in the front room of a run-down 12 megapixel sensor but the rent suits me and the landlord doesn't ask many questions.

I'm so poor from buying cameras that I cannot afford to pay the prices your whore of a mother is charging these days

We may have years, we may have hours, but sooner or later we push up flowers.
I gave some old Catholic ladies $11 American to to further their questionable agenda in return for two functioning (maybe) cameras.
I'm still using a D90 because who gives a poo poo we're all going to die.
I have friends/family who want me to shoot their weddings for $$$ and I tell them jesus gently caress just let me tell you who you should hire because I'm not that good.

I just hate seeing anything go to waste.
the only watermarks on my photos are from using them as beer coasters because that's all they're good for and im too poor to afford real coasters and also i'm an alcoholic

39 perfect posts with each roll.

I haven't spent money on photography gear in at least a year. It's been pretty great
