Photography Bucket List

Many people have a bucket list or goals of things they hope to do while they can.  Many times these list include travel around the world, accomplishments, and and personal goals. But how many of us constantly strive to accomplish theses things? 

Many photographers I know also have bucket lists and I am always fascinated to hear what others want to accomplish.  Many times some of the goals are actually easy if you just take the time to research how to do it, take the time, and DO IT.  

Lately as a photographer I have been pushing myself to cross some of the items and types of shots off my photography bucket list.  We live in an age that provides vast opportunities to learn so much.  With sites like YouTube you can teach yourself to do practically anything.  Thought it may take years to complete some of my big items, some have been easier to accomplish.
