How many hours do you spend oh photography ?

[Sirene]

I'm curious as to how many hours do you guys spend daily or weekl... learning, shooting, editing etc...

Lately... Not much.

The last few weeks, the only time I even took my camera out of the bag was for fight club.


Been meaning to shoot more though.

I shoot whenever I can. I am still learning (actually I've been "still learning" for a few years now :greenpbl: ) so I am always reading different books and magazines. All day at work I am just antsy on getting off so I can pick up my camera.

12 to 14 hours a day, it's my job.

 

[FrankLamont]

About 3-4 a day, more in PP. Depending.

 

[JamesMason]

About 8 a day on average. Maybe only a couple of hours at weekends

 

[usayit]

Before and during college... probably at least 2-4 hours a day.

Post family and career... maybe 2-4 hours every few days.. No where near enough.

1-2 hours a day. It seems I have no life.

It depends. There are days when I've exposed a number of sheets or rolls of film, and on those days I'll spend a hour or so developing and a couple hours printing conact sheets and preliminary prints of selected negatives. Other times I'll spend a few hours printing in the darkroom working on getting a couple of finished prints.

When I am photographing, I tend to work only for a few hours, unless I'm hiking to a remote destination, but even then I rarely spend more than a few hours actually making exposures. As others have stated, I would love to have more time to photograph, but even had I won the lottery, I think that a 1-2 hours a day would be my maximum time actually photographing or a 2-3 hour darkroom session...

yesterday was the first time I took my camera out in probably 2 weeks...
Got in an hour maybe? Just rode around out behind my house on my golf cart looking for cool things to take pics of!

When ever I can, Ive almost completed my final semester and will soon have my degree in photography art so Ive had it out alot lately.

 

[Hooligan Dan]

About 30 hours a week for work. Personal time varies. Depends on if I'm working on a project or not.

 

[Randall Ellis]

I just re-read the original post - I also spend a good hour or more each day looking at the work of others, which I consider part of the learning process. I have an extensive home library as well as what's posted online or in local galleries and art museums...

Not nearly as much as I'd like. Photography is mostly a hobby/side job that I do when I'm off of my full-time day job. While I love doing it, there just doesnt seem to be enough hours in a day to devote more time to it. =/
