I don't know if this is the proper place to ask, but I have a question. I have been chasing storms in the southwest for 4 years now. It is a passionate "hobby" of mine, but each year I get more and more publicity from state and local news stations. I have spent so much time learning meteorology, forecasting, and everything else needed to be successful at locating severe weather events that I have never focused on the quality of the media I offer to the news stations. I would like to better educate myself and become more accredited by attaining a degree in photo journalism or a similar field. The practicality of this is another issue altogether. Like I said I have been doing this as a hobby and would need to retain a "full" income while endeavouring for this goal. What I would like to know is if anyone or everyone can offer some input, such as schools, programs, etc.
