ABSTRACT

This chapter is subject orientated. It takes a cross-section of 11 kinds of subject matter fromsports to simple astronomy, outlining some typical professional markets and the generalorganization and technical approach to the work, plus hazards to avoid. Of course, whole books could be written about each subject, but running them together here points out the

different pressures and priorities they impose on you as a photographer. Perhaps you will never

have to tackle all of them, but then you are unlikely to specialize in only one type of subject

either, especially if you are just setting up as a professional.
