If your pictures are no good, you're too far way.

Always have a camera in your car, I had an accident when I guy ran into me and he said to the Police I overtook him before he hit me, I took photos from all angles and submitted them to the court, he was fined for careless driving, I rest my case,

Considering what happened to him, I've always taken that one with a grain of salt.

Don't trust an archaeologist with your precious kit.
My crew mananged to loose my Manfrotto ball-head coming off the site this summer. They think it bounced out of the wheelbarrow and no-one noticed. Last year they ripped a film out of its cartridge trying to rewind it without pushing the button on the baseplate in. Two years ago they drove a Landrover over my Unilock tripod. Three years ago they fried my extremely expensive Canon Pro 1 bridge camera by leaving it in direct sunlight when it was 43 degrees C. And that is before you start looking at the quality of the images

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Enjoy, because if your not enjoying it
(1) Your images will reflect this. and
(2) Why are you doing it in the first place.
