Somehow I've made a career out of taking funny and adorable photos of animals.

Scroll for happiness. I've included the links for each of the images on my account.

You can find them and more on my Instagram gallery as I continue posting for life: www.instagram.com/daxon

I thought I'd create this article first before explaining how people can also get to this point.

Enjoy the fun.

Whalecum To Steemit


Untitled-10e45a.jpg

I love the photos and hope to hear some of the backstories.

Have you ever had any major injuries from this type of photography?
I'm sure each individual picture has quite an interesting explanation.

Hope you enjoy my quick photoshop!

Make yourself welcome and feel free to follow and ask any questions you may have! I love the humor in these (maybe a tag you could consider using in the future for sure).

How did you find that photo? That whale came out of no where and I managed to snap a selfie.

I've had a camel and llamas sneeze in my face, as well as a dog and birds bite. Still going strong.
Thanks for the response, lots more to come with an actual introduction.

I hacked your icloud account and decided posting them on a decentralized platform would be most lucrative! Haha. Will look forward to future posts as you have a most interesting (one of a kind?) job.

It would be great if you could verify that you own the Instagram account. We're very wary of identity theft and plagiarism.

I hear your thoughts @demotruk, hope the new photo answers this :)

It's really me

Nothing on reverse image search, seems legit. Welcome!

Looks great.

Yes, I commented on my bird photo from this post, I shall do a real Steemit post on my Instagram later next wee as a thank you. For now I added a comment under my Instagram username @daxon.

What country are you from?

I'm from Ireland, and half Canadian :) www.daxon.co/about

That's an interesting combo :)

Added a new hand written image to the post. Thanks for asking.

Is it weird that I said hello to all the animals as I scrolled down?

Totally normal, I talk to them for hours in person

@daxon, you inspired me to take selfies with my dogs and make underwater videos of them swimming, thank you!

Trigger warning: No pugs, French bulldogs, or corgies

dream job, and the models look great

It's all still a hustle, work is few and far between. Nearly getting there.

WOW! I'm so glad you're finally here. I love the pic of you and the calf. You should remember me in future, as I was your first follower on Steemit. :)

Why thanks! I have so many photos that everyone loves, but not many people want to help me continue to produce it. It looks like Seemit will finally by my answer.

Cool stuff guy!

I think I found my new Spirit Animal

Everyone needs a spirit animal idol. This guy is in Rotorua, New Zealand if you want to find him.

I have never seen a live kangaroo, I would like to know. They are not afraid of people, or close to you home kinguru?

Some are afraid, but the more time you spend with them the more they'll be comfortable with you.

Good stuff. Made me chuckle. Just imaging some captions for them.

You are my new hero.

Humans and nature, a happy mix, thanks for sharing, we like it.

this is probably the best thing on earth :)))

I like your idea , go in the same direction ! )

Adorable! The whole lot of ya!

Hahaha that's fucking awesome mate! Keep doing what you do, I can't wait to see more photos from you! Cheers! :D

Thanks :) a real intro to come

I loved those pictures, very good lighting and close up of those beautiful animals, you have to love what your doin to catch those magic moments!, I bet you took many to choose one. As a journalist I can say, this is a great job.

Steemit, where's the little heart I can click on for individual pics? I love the one with the parrots at the dish---<<here's my heart>>>>

I'm sure they'll add that feature soon :)

Much cute. Much lulz : )

amazing photos!! upvote :)

Thanks for the introduction, it is always nice to see different ways people are able to make a living. Have an amazing, fun day!

Great shots! I love wildlife photography. Check out some of my shots in my introduction post. I'll be adding more soon, and I can't wait to see more of yours.

Sweet! keep up the great work. But start adding yourself in the frame

That would be tough, I am normally shooting with a 300mm zoom. But I do have some shots of humans that I will be posting soon.

This is great! Love the photos!
