Considering moving to RE Photography but not sure what are actual earnings that can be achieved.

Assuming a single photographer in a large city after growing their business in a large metropolitan area. How much I could possibly make ?

This is an update on the post I made a year ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ACL/comments/1i04d5y/two_year_injury_anniversary_with_severe/

I am writing this post for two reasons.

1. I wished I had a similar summary at the time of my injury to give me an idea how severe arthrofibrosis looks long term
2. For the people currently going through this to comment and chat about their outcomes.
3. Allows to keep my own diary how its going

What changed:

In short, almost nothing. From ROM perspective I am still exactly the same as before. I believe knee feels less tight and in some/most days there is no difference in feeling.

I remained very active with 3-5 days of exercise per week (cycling + gym). There is still visual difference in quad size, strength wise I am 80+% symmetrical. My BMI is 22.5 (male)

I had a recent MRI which showed mild OA but was told thats normal post 3 surgeries.

I had a recent appointment with orthopaedic surgeon who rulled out any new surgery as the improve in function would be minimal and risk of infection or scar tissue coming back would be high.
