Maybe you should suggest this be implemented in the fences and walls that separate all countries. To star cut a hole in the fence between North and South Korea, big enough for the kids to go through. Perhaps as these children age they will Keep cutting the hole bigger each year

Thanks, and yeah.. I think it’s definitely going to come down to trial and error. I think my best success so far has come with going out for running photo expeditions — ie photo first, run second — rather than just expecting awesome pics on a regular run. Either way, combining hobbies is always an fun experiment.

Hey, I actually have spent a lot of time trying to arrive to such a solution as well. I love to run, and photography is my passion, but how to combine both was always a difficulty. I mostly do macro photography, and I always find bugs on my trail runs… but when i’m looking for them they tend to be quite elusive. Originally I tried creating an alternative running style using a Black Rapid strap and keeping one hand on the camera while running to keep it still… that worked but not good for long distances whatsoever. Right now I think the best solution is to run with a backpack that you have your camera strapped down in.

I did a photo expedition along the Appalachian trail with a 75lb backpack, mostly camping stuff, not photo gear, but still my dslr and 4 lenses, and hiked a total of 17 miles up and down small mountains and 17 miles back, during it I found that I could actually run with all that gear at a steady pace, but then again I was using a USMC Ilbe backpack, so those things are designed for mobility.

Long comment short, its possible! Don’t give up! You aren’t the only active photographer out there. I actually found this post looking for what other people had come up with.
