It's easy to get lost in the allure of fine photography gear. Believe me I've done it. Years ago, I came to know this old photographer named Frank G. who told me that when he started out making pictures in the 1920's he had one camera and one lens and he "shot" lots of pictures. Shortly thereafter, as his bank account grew, he acquired another lens and another camera. Then another lens. Then another one after that. After awhile he had accumulated a suitcaseful of lenses and cameras and eventually discovered that as he acquired more and more cameras and lenses he made fewer and fewer pictures. Aahhhhh!
Still, we need the gear to do our work. I use Nikon cameras and lenses, Really Right Stuff tripods and heads, Gura Gear backpacks and Epson printers to achieve my photographs.
