Waiting is both fact and reality for certain genres of photography. Landscape photographers wait for the light. Wildlife photographers wait for their oft-shy subjects to pose. Street photographers may wait for the right person to walk through their frame.
However, not all waiting is created equal. I certainly find that to be true. While I am willing to wait, sometimes hours, for one type of photo, I can rapidly grow impatient for a different type of photo. That’s interesting – and an insight into what makes you tick as a photographer. When you know what subjects and scenes you are willing to wait for, you know the type of photography you’re passionate about.
