    My work does not mean taking a few accidental snaps whilst I'm on holiday. If carrying a 1kg camera around your neck for 12 hour days along with some other equipment, waiting around to get the best shot with the best light sounds like leisure then you have a strange perception of leisure.
    but people do the strangest things for fun, on holiday and at home. the amount of effort involved in getting your shots is, IMO, irrelevant. You're on holiday. That's why you went to this scenic place.
