Every day I take the dog and camera out together because if I don't take the camera I always miss an interesting bird and if I don't take the dog she sulks or eats the gate.

I'm a photographer for a University so I take quite a few. I average about 3k each month.

Whenever. I usually have a camera with me. I carry a point and shoot in my purse with a pretty good zoom just in case I come across something. If I am takinng a car trip, I take either an SLR or my SX50HS.

I never leave home without a camera, ever! Even on my motorcycle or scooter I'll take a backpack or at least a Canon S95 on a belt case. My iPhone is always with me and the images are so good I find myself using it in restaurants, friends homes, etc. Most of my life I had to sacrifice $$ to shoot film, now that it costs nothing I just can't shoot enough! The included shots are spontaneous iPhone shots.

Now its whenever - spent about 5 years before I retired traveleing all over Maryland. Now I'm retired, having a hard time thinking about where I'd like to visit again and getting a little sensitive to cold. Kinda concluded that as the weather warms it won't be what I want to see again, but rather what I want to do differentand new - lotta that! Not much on traveling beyond day trips.
I'm finding the cold deters me too, need a bit more motivation to go out when it's below 32deg, Bob.

I agree. I'm retired as well. I carry a point and shoot with me everywhere I go and take the DSLR out often for special photo trips. I't pretty much when the mood strikes, but that happens very often.
Also really enjoy PP

I try to take photos daily when possible. If I miss a day, I start to get shaky so I know tomorrow I HAVE to take some photos! I keep trying for that "perfect" shot.

Hi all, For me it is not really a daily dose of taking photos. Since I have such a great backyard with the canal I look hourly for some photogenic birds. Sometimes a Great Blue Heron stops by for a fish dinner. I've also photographed a large flock of white pelicans feeding. So, the bag is various, and sometimes nothing at all, just the local mockingbird on a wire. Some days I take a trip to the French Quarter, there is always subjects about to photograph. City Park is always good for gulls in flight, and many different types of ducks, geese, and swans.

Whenever I go out my camera is with me. But it is seven and wearing out. It's a Panasonic FZ20 bridge camera. The aperture, shutter, settings and some of the scene modes no longer work. But I know its limitations and stay within them. If I leave without it, I get this nagging feeling that I'm going to miss a good shot. I only shot about twenty a day on average.
