Hobbies (please help me) Arne Ader has discovered a way to avoid ethical dilemmas of hunting, yet still enjoy the sport. Rather than use a gun, Ader goes hunting armed with a camera. Each year he takes part in a "bloodless hunt", an exercise organized by the State Forest Management Centre to promote nonlethal ways of "capturing" animals. Each year, a different animal is chosen as the "target" - last year it was badgers. This year's selected species will be decided by the effects of the weather on breeding, feeding, migration and hibernation patterns. * What is the main idea of the text? Why is photographing of animals becoming more popular than hunting nowadays? * What other extraordinary/dangerous hobbies do you know? Do you approve or disapprove of the adrenalin seekers? Give arguments. *Do you like taking pictures? If yes, when did you start, what camera do you use and are you a good photographer? If not, what do you think of photography as a hobby? Consider its advantages. Could you please read the text and give a talk focusing on these aspects? I need that :) Thank you !

The main text features an individual that loves hunting but is caught up in society's wish for a less violent and gun free environment. He decides to follow his passion by picking up a camera instead of a gun and participate in a hunt for the perfect picture. Photography is becoming more popular because with digital imaging it is not as expensive as it used to be. Because of cameras in mobile phones more and more people are discovering the thrill of finding the perfect picture. I myself mostly use my phone I normally forget to pack a camera myself anyway. The thrill of creating the perfect picture maybe does not beat the adrenalin that goes with base-jumping or skydiving and I am sure that there is nothing with that. I won't do it without a camera though.
