I don't know how I got into photography, but I've always loved it. Nature photography is what I enjoy most as it lets me combine my other hobbies of fishkeeping, gardening, herpetology, and hiking.
I post many of my wildlife observations on iNaturalist, and I encourage anyone else interested in being a naturalist or citizen scientist to do so also. It's a great tool to track species movements as a result of anthropogenic factors.
