No, its not core photography. I just wanted to explore something that I had never and not many done. This was done to observe the fear in me which is a good exercise to deplete it.

It worked well.

That is just an illusion. There is nothing much there in grave yard to feel so.

Yeah, with pleasure.
I read in a book to overcome the fear you have to study the fear.
1. spot the feel deep in your mind.
2. understand whats frightening you.
3. analyse why it is. And find how sensible your thoughts on it are. or is it an illusion or presumption, etc.
4. and do something that you are scared of.
I did two things which I was quite frightened of. One of them is photo shoot in grave yard.
It was a tough call for me to drive myself there when there is someone deep inside me saying that there is no real necessity to take the risk of frightening yourself. While photographing, in btw the lens got blurred as if there are dew drops on my camera lens, that happened consecutively for two times and that frightened me. I just held my breath for a moment and stopped thinking what I was and started to observe how I am feeling inside. Some sense said that its something wrong with the camera and nothing else to do with the location and timing. After I am done with all capturing work I started contemplating is there anything called ghost... that's a different one again.
The forgone conclusion was: "For good or bad there is no real magic in this world." And now I don't fear horror movies

Fear of failing in career? Then just fail as many times as you can. I am sure at a certain point in the journey failures start failing...

Nothing ventured, nothing failed.
You should celebrate failure. But only if you know what you are doing.

do you relate failure (in career) to low wages?

failure in career due to low wages is a cause for concern.
what good is talent and low wages? you may be getting cannes lions, but if you dont have money to pay rent, would you call it being successful?
