Getting a Masters in photojournalism or not? Please share knowledge and/or experience.

MoonMan04

Basically, I can't decide what my next step in life is going to be. At this point in my life I want nothing more than to travel and go on assignments and tell a story, but the problem is I don't exactly have the experience in writing, although I have a pretty solid wildlife portfolio. I have a bachelor's in wildlife ecology and conservation, I just don't know if I should continue pursuing my career as a wildlife biologist and develop my own photojournalism aspect or if I should just go straight to a masters program. Does anyone have any insight on this? Also does anyone know of organizations that seek people like myself that are willing to go on assignment like MongaBay.org?

MoonMan, I can identify with your dilemma. My two cents, for the nothing it's worth, is that a master's program won't help all that much. Good luck.
