I took up photography recently and found the opposite happened - I really enjoy the technical aspect in the same way I enjoy coding, but there's also much more to it than that. I particularly like that there's no definite "right answer", you can read all the books you like but eventually you just have to do your best guess and take the damn picture. It appeals to my problem solving AND my artistic side at the same time. EDIT: The fact that you get to play with all these "grown-up toys" strengthens the appeal too...
