For my guest Robert Boku, the answer is a definite YES. In this interview, I sit down with Robert, a family doctor and coroner from Toronto who sees "the living and the dead", to discuss his incredible journey into photography. We talk about the crazy lengths he goes to for a photo—from freezing all night for a lunar eclipse composite to walking miles in Rome at 4 AM to capture the Colosseum without a single tourist. Robert proves that with passion, the right techniques (like time blending and long exposure), and a bit of madness, you can capture gallery-quality images anywhere. In this video, you will learn: The "Crazy" dedication: How Robert shoots iconic locations like Paris and Rome during 24-hour layover trips. Time Blending: How he created a stunning composite of the Toronto Skyline during a lunar eclipse. Empty Cities: Tips for capturing busy tourist spots like the Spanish Steps completely empty. Retirement Goals: Why photography is the ultimate "soul food" for retirement and his plan to travel via camper van. Student Success: A look at his "Institute of Photography" final exam photos which passed on the first try!.
