Ponder this :
If you landed on this page then you are looking for solutions. If the methods you have been using worked then you wouldn't be here.
What makes my work different is I believe that each of us are eternal souls having a an emotional and physical life experience; that the reason we often can't find solutions to our problems is we only address the emotional and physical and forget about the metaphysical/spiritual aspect of our lives. So many of us walk around with big empty holes in us and we wonder why we feel so lousy.
Not long ago I saw a sign which read "I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination". And it hit me¦ this is the basis of the problems which most us face. We stubbornly keep sailing into the wind, getting nowhere and hoping the direction of the wind will change, when we should be adjusting our sails.
We need to learn to take control of our lives and where they are going.
If you are not living the life you have dreamt of then ask yourself why?
hat is it that is holding you back from making your dreams your reality?
Together we can work through the limiting beliefs which are holding you back from reaching your fullest potential.
Let me show me show you how by changing the way you think, you will make better choice which will lead you to more control over your life so it will become richer and more enjoyable.
Let me show you our services and how we can help you solve those challenges.

text: The aim of this study is to explain habits of the students' alcohol drinking in the College of Health Services, Firat University. It is contained all students who are in first or second class in the programs of medical documentation and secretary, medical laboratory, radiology and anesthesia of the college. Questionnaires forms have been given to all students in June 2002 and it was reached 162 of 166 students. The average age is 21,85±2.34. The prevalence of alcohol drinking is 19,1% among the students. That rate is 29,7% in males and 5,6% in females. Initial age for alcohol is 17,1. According to students' statement, as the reasons of initial alcohol drinking: friends' insistence is 54,8%, wonder is 32,3%, and stress is 12,9%. 17 of 31 students who are alcohol drinkers don't want to be out of the alcohol drinking. That is a meaningful that students want to continue as alcohol drinkers. For this reason, it must be take the necessary measurements to prevent initial alcohol drink and the society must be educated about this.

Getting to Nhulunbuy By Air
If traveling to Nhulunbuy by plane Qantas Link provide daily jet services to Gove Airport from Cairns and Darwin with connections to anywhere in the world. The Cairns - Gove flight is only 1 hour and 40 mins and Darwin - Gove flight is only 1 hour 10 mins.
An airport shuttle bus meets every flight for transfers to accommodation houses in Nhulunbuy and costs approximately AUD $10 pp each way.
If you plan to travel to Nhulunbuy and the Gove Peninsula by road please note all Arnhem Land is Aboriginal land and visitors require permits to enter.
By Road
The Central Arnhem Road leaves the Stuart Highway
52 km south of Katherine. The first 30 km is sealed but from
then on the road is corrugated, slippery with loose gravel
and in some places heavy with bull dust.
There are two major river crossings; the Wilton River near Bulman Aboriginal community and the Goyder River, about 400 km from Nhulunbuy. It is advisable to check road conditions with the Department of Planning and Infrastructure before traveling for a Road Report.
The last fuel stop is at Katherine or Mataranka. There is no more fuel after this until you reach Nhulunbuy, so it will be necessary to carry jerry cans of fuel.
Permits are required
Traveling in Arnhem Land also requires a Permit which you can apply for through the Northern Land Council. You may also require a recreational or special permit from the Dhimurru Land Management Council for areas outside the Nhulunbuy Town when sightseeing in East Arnhem Land.
In 2010 the town will have has a camper trailer park located in the grounds of the Walkabout Lodge with 12 powered sites and amenities. Bush camping without facilities is available in the recreation areas managed by Dhimurru Land Management Aboriginal Corporation and a permit must be obtained.
Please note that the Central Arnhem Road is not recommended for caravans, only sturdy off-road camper trailers. The Northern Land Council will not approve a permit to tow a caravan into East Arnhem Land and Dhimurru Land Management Aboriginal Corporation will not issue a Visitor Recreation Permit to anyone with a caravan.
This is to minimize the environmental impact of long term camping at recreational camping areas. Penalties apply for moving throughout the region without a permit and visitors are asked to respect the wishes of the Traditional Owners in this regard. Our camper trailer park will not be ready until the dry season of 2010.
By Boat
If entering Nhulunbuy via Gove Harbor in a yacht or boat be
sure to contact the Australian Customs Service for quarantine
information on 08 8987 1744.
regulations should be strictly adhered to when on the water. Be cautious when traveling at high speed, as there may be hidden marine debris. If possible, avoid standing in the water when launching and recovering your boat.

- 2 tsp sugar or evaporated cane juice (edit: xylitol works as well)
- 1/4 tsp baking powder

ICO Regulation Proposed By Russian Finance Ministrybr>
The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation (Minfin) has introduced a draft federal law on the regulation of digital assets and initial coin offerings (ICO).
The Digital Assets Regulation Bill, published by Minfin on January 25, defines cryptocurrency as a digital asset which can be traded but can't be used as means of payment, with the ruble being the only legal tender in Russia.
The bill states that individual traders will be able to buy and sell digital currencies through licensed cryptocurrency exchanges registered in Russia. Crypto exchanges must conform with existing legislation, including strict KYC (know- your-customer) policies. Traders will be able to exchange their crypto assets for other assets using special accounts run by an entity, which will be established by the central bank.
Concerning ICOs, the bill states that in order to issue an ICO, a company will need to disclose certain information in an investment memorandum. This includes the project's website, network provider, and full name of the person ultimately responsible for the offering. While there would be no investment limit for investors who are licensed professionals in accordance with Russia's securities law, a 50,000 ruble (around $900) cap would be imposed for investors without qualification for each token issuance.
However, any advertisements and promotion prior to the ICO may be prohibited, as well as the official publication of all necessary documents associated with the company.
"Prior to the publication of an offer for the release of tokens, the tokens that are issued may not be offered to potential purchasers in any form or by any means using advertising," the ministry said.
The ministry also specified an explanation regarding the exchange of digital currencies to fiat currency. "This draft law contains a disagreement with the Bank of Russia regarding the possible exchange of cryptocurrency to ruble, foreign currency and/or other property," the ministry said. "According to the Bank of Russia, such deals can be permitted only for tokens that are issued for raising funds."
The finance ministry said they are confident that the legal status of cryptocurrency would reduce the risks of fraud and provide fiscal transparency, which is expected to increase the tax revenue of the government. In contrast, banning cryptocurrency trading would likely lead only to the emergence of a black market.
Commenting on the draft law, business ombudsman and presidential candidate Boris Titov said he considers the requirements to be excessively strict.
"The Finance Ministry's proposals present a much tougher regulation than in Japan, Switzerland, Belarus, and Armenia," said Titov. "That is, in all countries that have adopted some form of legislation. It would be better not to adopt anything than to adopt such legislation. Blockchain allows people, entrepreneurs, and the technological community to control officials, which they do not like, of course."

Colleen M Robles
Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics
Current Research Interests
My general interests are in geometric structures with symmetry, and in particular questions in which Lie theory plays a significant role, via an automorphism or symmetry group. Such structures arise throughout geometry, and those areas in which I have worked include Hodge theory, rational homogeneous varieties, Finsler geometry and calibrated geometry.
My current research focus is Hodge theory, a subject lying at the confluence of three fields: algebraic geometry, algebraic group theory, and arithmetic geometry. Hodge theory associates to every algebraic variety an invariant known as a Hodge structure that encodes both geometric and arithmetic properties of the variety. Algebraic group theory enters at this point as Hodge structures are parameterized by homogeneous manifolds (period domains) with linear algebraic automorphism groups (Mumford-Tate groups), and the Hodge structure is equivalent to a "Hodge representation" of the group.
More generally, Hodge theory associates to a family (or moduli space) of algebraic varieties a variation of Hodge structure, a.k.a. a period map. The latter are one of the most powerful tools in the study of moduli spaces. The analysis of period maps involves both the geometry of the period domain (including curvature properties and a system of geometric PDE known as Griffiths' horizontality condition) and the representation theory of the associated automorphism group. My current work involves problems in this arena that are motivated by questions arising in the study of moduli spaces of algebraic varieties.

First Presbyterian's Annual
Worldwide Communion Sunday Brunch
The great thing about First Presbyterian Church is that we value diversity. Diversity has become one of those words frequently used with air-quotes. The sincerity has been lost most of the time the word is used, but this is not true of First Presbyterian Church.
We cherish the differences in our families, our church and our community. Keep in mind that it is not our differences that make us a church family; instead it is the acceptance of our differences and the love of Jesus that binds us. This love gives us the ability to welcome the differences.
Our differences come in many forms. Some of us are from the South, some from the North or even the Midwest. Some of us were born in the US, some migrated here. Some of us learned English as a first language; some learned it as a second language. The differences are great and come from many sources.
But the thing that makes us a church family

Jodie Whittaker's first season of Doctor Who will launch in late 2018, according to a new claim by Steven Moffat.Ninja Warrior UK's greatest obstacle, Mount Midoriyama, is finally beaten for first time
The 35-year-old actress is set to make her first appearance as Doctor Who in the upcoming Christmas special, where Peter Capaldi's incarnation will regenerate following an adventure with David Bradley's First Doctor.
It isn't the only change of hands the show is undergoing however, with Broadchurch showrunner Chris Chibnall set to replace Steven Moffat in the writing seat.
Speaking to Doctor Who magazine about his departure, Moffat seemed to drop an indicator of when we could expect the next series, namely autumn 2018.
Detailing how he stuck with the show until the end of 2017 to fit Chibnall's schedule, Moffat said: 'The alternative might have been to have had no Doctor Who at all between Christmas 2015 and the autumn of 2018.'
A flippant comment? Or has Moffat dropped us one last Whovian slip? We're marking our calendars either way.
He's also recently spoken out against those finding a problem with the casting of Jodie Whittaker, saying how he wants everyone to 'stop pretending there's a problem'.
If you're eagerly awaiting Capaldi's last bow as the Doctor, you can check out the teasing trailer for Christmas special Twice Upon A Time.

Govan Cross: Gather at the Mary Barbour statue, in front of Govan Subway Station, G51 3JW
Celebrating the work of Mary Barbour and the women who made up her army, this guided artwalk employs humour, graffiti, & banners! Learn about campaigners for the 1915 Rent Strikes and other protests – in their own words.
You will hear the stories of important Clydesiders as we walk the streets where they lived and worked. We use the Occupy Movement's 'human megaphone' to quote Govan activists – including Mary Barbour, Helen Crawfurd, Peace Crusaders, Suffragettes, and veterans of the 1971 Upper Clyde Shipbuilders Work-In. Join us as we march with banners, employ (temporary) graffiti to rename streets, and visit important spaces such as the tenement building where Mary Barbour lived during the Rent Strikes.
You will be led by a creative team of artists, activists, and local historians who have been researching these histories as part of the 'Strong Women of the Clydeside' team, led by artist t s Beall. This is a creative happening as much as a guided walk.
Event Details
Our walk begins at the new Mary Barbour statue on Govan Cross, stopping at sites important to the 1915 Rent Strikes, the 1971 UCS Work-In, and more recent protests. We will end in Govan at Fairfield Heritage Centre.
How To Join Us
12:30pm start: Govan Cross
Gather at the Mary Barbour statue, just in front of Govan Subway station.

Pets First serves birds large and small, dogs, cats, bunnies, guinea pigs (caveys), ferrets & other small mammals. On a case by case basis I may also serve larger mammals. I've cared for a horse, sheep, llamas and an alpaca.
One care option is kennel-free pet boarding or day care in my home. Here the pet, usually a dog, is truly a guest. The dog can move freely through much of the large house, play in a large secure backyard or during inclement weather, in a room designed for active play, sleep in comfort at night perhaps even on the bed. Given lots of individual attention, the pet stays on his own diet, again increasing the likelihood that the pet will remain healthy and happy. I focus on the individual pet's needs rather than giving a low-ball base price and then ramping up the service with add-ons, as some places do. I often consider these add-ons as essentials. Smaller mammals & birds stay in their cages when with me, except when I individually let them out to play in "safe" areas.
Calls to the pet's home is a second option. In addition to the normal "chores" such as food, water, walks or litter boxes, I or an associate will spend time with the pet. For the pet, this minimizes stress and may actually prevent the pet from becoming physically ill or acting out negative behaviors.
Additional services available include brushing, brushing teeth, giving medications and performing some at-home medical procedures that the pet's veterinarian has prescribed. Gentleness and careful documentation are hallmarks.
Pets First Diane's Priority Pet Care formally began in February 2006. Its name is a true expression of my feelings for my furred and feathered clients: Pets really do come first at Pets First! From the late 1990's until 2006, I had positioned my pet care activities as an additional service of my consulting business, coordinating that activity with another pet sitter. During that time, I discovered that pets were my passion. I really love working with them.
Over the years, the reputation of my pet care business has grown among clients, veterinary facilities and other pet care professionals. According to "pet parents" who have given me the opportunity to interact with their beloved furry and feathered family members, I have a God-given gift—a wonderful rapport with animals.
Now my focus and mission is to provide my client pets with the best, most reliable, knowledgeable and loving care that I and my hand-picked assistants can possibly provide. That way their owners can have peace of mind when they're away. Their pets can stay healthy and happy.
Pets First Diane's Priority Pet Care is registered, licensed, insured and bonded and contracts with you under an Oregon Statute to make my business the "legal agent" of the animal in your, the owner's, absence.

I have imported an excel form from spread2jot app.
I couldn't seem to find the form as I wanted it to look back on my home page ?
I want the form as a form not the data in the form.
It said it was successful but then back in forms / edit forms, there was only one text box ?
Can you help ?
- JotForm SupportsethAnswered on October 17, 2016 at 04:04 AM
Hello. Please give us some time to investigate this issue further. In the mean time you can try converting your excel file into a fillable pdf form and try using JotForm's pdf converter. Here is how you convert your pdf file to a JotForm form.
We will get back to you as soon as possible.
Thank you.
- JotForm SupportWelvinAnswered on October 17, 2016 at 09:02 AM
Just an update with regards to your problem. I have tested the app and it is working for me. All fields are being created in the form, here's the link: http://form.jotformpro.com/form/62903515762962.
As for the data, the app is designed to import the data in the file. If you don't want to include the data, you can just create a copy of the form, remove the data before going through the import process.
I think those fields that aren't being created are not supported by the Spread2Jot app. As far as I could see, the app only supports textboxes. I'm not sure if you can create an advanced field in excel, but I'd be happy to examine your form if you can share it with us. You can send it to email@example.com. Please include this thread in your email so we'd know that you are referring to this thread.

The Catholic parish of St. Clement in Trier-Ruwer is planning a replacement for the Katholische Kindertagesstätte St. Clemens on her property Auf Mohrbüsch 30 in the district of Ruwer.
The existing day care center dates back to 1962. In 2010, an extension was added to a small, two-storey extension. The original building is no longer functional in terms of function and technology. An upgrade of the building in the sense of the current energy requirements would require a lot of effort. The Catholic parish of St. Clemens has therefore decided to dismantle the existing kindergarten. On the other hand, the extension should be preserved and integrated into a new building concept.
The competition property comprises an outdoor area of around 3,000 sqm. The size of the plot will make it possible to preserve generous play and open spaces in addition to the new building, while at the same time offering interesting opportunities for new construction.
As a result of the planning competition, the Catholic parish of St. Clemens expects a functionally, economically and artistically optimized building that meets the needs of the day care center.

Why Diversity is Upside Down
Chicago, IL
Big Idea:
We live in an Upside Down World. So much of what we know of how the world works has been flipped on its head. The US' position in geopolitics. The way healthcare will work in the US. How products get manufactured. How we consume entertainment. How we connect with one another. The best practices have become obsolete. But we're not sure what the new and next practices are. If all these and many more things are in the midst of questioning their basic presuppositions, then diversity should be no different. In what ways is diversity upside down?
Andrés has been one of the leading voices in shaping a contemporary, next generation approach to diversity and inclusion. The approach is global, deeply integrated into talent systems, and focused on enabling marketplace success. He has over 25 years of experience as a C-suite management consultant, diversity executive, organizational development and training professional, and journalist.
Andrés joined Korn/Ferry Leadership and Talent Consulting from Diversity Best Practices, a diversity and inclusion think-tank and consultancy, where he acted as President and was responsible for the organization's overall vision, strategy, and outcomes. Prior to his tenure there, he acted as Chief Diversity Officer and Emerging Workforce Solutions Leader for Hewitt Associates and was responsible for shaping and leading that organization's internal diversity transformation as well as its diversity consultancy.
Throughout Europe, Asia, North America, and his native Latin America, Andrés has served clients in shaping their enterprise-wide diversity and inclusion business cases and strategies across industries – including financial, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government, not-for-profits, and education — with dozens of Global 500 organizations such as John Deere, Marriott, United, Target, Cigna and Novartis as well as non-US multinationals in Brazil, South Korea, and India.
Andrés, the author of a groundbreaking book, "The Inclusion Paradox: The Obama Era and the Transformation of Global Diversity," is a frequently sought after speaker on the topic of diversity and inclusion.

In this post, Steve Berardi from PhotoNaturalist talks about the problems of having too much camera gear, and what you can do to minimise your gear.
When you first got into photography, you probably started out pretty simple. Maybe you started with an advanced point and shoot camera or an SLR with the kit lens. Photography seemed so simple back then, didn't it?
Then, as your interest grew, you started buying more and more gear, until all of a sudden, out of nowhere, you found yourself surrounded by mountains of camera gear: lenses, filters, flashes, memory cards, cleaning kits, bags, camera bodies, lens hoods, tripods, ballheads, panheads, levels, tripod collars, camera straps, card readers, remote shutter releases, and the list goes on forever…
But, is all this gear really worth it? Is it really all necessary to achieve your end goal of capturing light?
Whenever you get new gear, you may just think about its cost in money: can you afford it? Should you wait until they lower the price? Is it really worth it to get the name brand or should you buy an off-brand?
But, anytime you get new gear there's a whole lot of hidden costs too, which Leo Babauta illustrates brilliantly in a recent post on his new blog about minimalism. Here are some of those hidden costs he talks about (along with some adaptations I've made about how they relate to photography):
One of the biggest costs that personally affects me is trying to decide which gear to bring. As a nature photographer, I can only carry so much gear in my backpack, so I'm at a point now where I can't carry it all in one bag! Having so much camera stuff has become a hassle because now I have to seriously think about what to take and what not to take on a hike.
So, maybe now you recognize all the hidden costs of your camera stuff, but after thinking about your gear, you still think it's all necessary for capturing great images.
Although you certainly need special gear to capture certain types of images (i.e. you can't really photograph birds without a long telephoto lens), the gear isn't the most important thing. In photography (and just about everything), it isn't the gear that makes an image great, it's the photographer.
Nothing illustrates this more beautifully than the new book by Chase Jarvis, The Best Camera is the One That's With You. The book is full of remarkable photos he took with the simple camera on his iPhone. He didn't even use Photoshop to edit the photos, but instead relied entirely on iPhone apps.
Often times, I think that instead of pushing the limits of our existing gear, we just buy something new in hopes that it'll solve our problem. Everyone loves to get a fancy new toy, right?
Although I don't think you should necessarily get rid of all your camera stuff and just use your iPhone for now on, I do think it's a good idea to minimize your gear and focus on what you really need. I have a feeling there's probably some stuff in your camera bag right now that you haven't used in awhile.
So, how do you minimize your gear? And, how do you resist the urge to buy even more?
Well, here are a few things that have worked for me:
1. Keep a list of what you use and don't use during a photo shoot. I actually learned this trick from a backpacker that always wanted to reduce the weight of his bag. Whenever he left for a trip, he would make a list of everything he put in his backpack. While on the trip, he would cross something off if he used it. If he went on enough trips without using something, he stopped bringing it. The same thing has worked great for me as a nature photographer (I always want to hike with as little weight as possible).
2. Push the limits of your existing gear. Learn the limits of the gear you already have, and if you get an overwhelming urge to pass those limits, then that's the time to get another lens or another camera body.
3. Focus on adding knowledge, not gear, to your camera bag. I think this is the single most effective way to minimize your gear. Read blogs (like DPS, heh), books, and magazines. Attend workshops or other classes. And, perhaps most importantly: experiment with the gear you do have! Learn as much as you can: knowledge doesn't take up space, and it doesn't cost nearly as much to obtain!
About the Author: Steve Berardi is a naturalist, photographer, and computer scientist. You can usually find him hiking in the San Gabriel Mountains or the Mojave Desert, both located in the beautiful state of California. Read more of his articles on nature photography at the PhotoNaturalist and follow him on Twitter.
I have the Canon Rebel T2i for half a year now and I am using only the kit lens that came with it in the box. I would like to buy some more gear but I get the point of this post. Minimalist photography sounds like a cool idea, and I guess it makes one more focused on quality of the work rather than on quantity of one's gear (which although helpful, it's not that necessary for decent amateur photography).
I have about 20 M42 mount lenses for my 10D, and another 7 or so Canon FL lenses in various stages of conversion to EOS mount. (and Yes I do take photos sometimes.) I'm a collectotographer
Carrying gear is getting old. What photographers need is a type of cart with large wheels that can be pulled into the field...then it wouldn't be necessary to leave anything behind. It happens often enough that the one piece of equipment I leave behind is the one I'm sorry I don't have...one of Murphy's laws?? Golfers have their carts, flea market people have their carts, what about photographers? I don't want to leave anything home!
You want some cheese with your whine? I agree with JD...it's a filler article with NO MERIT, or justification to print. What about the positives of having "too much gear"...always prepared with the right tool for the right job.
Cowboy up and discuss something with substance.
You could also help a lot of less privileged people in the developing countries who are interested in photography with some of these unused and unwanted gear. You would make a difference this way.
Your comments were very relevant for me. It seems whenever I am out with my camera and one lens, it's the other one that I wish I had. And of course I am always chomping at the bit to buy a new lens--even before I have thoroughly learned how to use what I have. Thanks for the wise words!
I loved reading these comments it's great seeing all the differing points of view. This one's sparked some interesting arguments!
For me, photography is capturing an image of something rare or rarely seen the way I do while wandering around in everyone else's ordinary world. I tend to a basic kit, that produces the kinds of images that I will be happy with the data stored at the moment. Having said that I very familiar with just exactly it takes to tote my load so to speak and depending on the environment our travel conditions particularly in the middle east.
Yet with all that planning 50% of the time there is that absolutely magical moment that I have to take what I know are less than what I want shots because (curses under breath) I did not bring the macro or some other item i labored over to take or not.
For me I would not give up the tools, I just keep trying to get better at planning and anticipation of being fully ready capture the most magical moment that I am not likely to walk into again in my life.
In 2001 I went minimalist by giving all my SLR gear to my daughter and buying a digital point and shoot camera. Ahh! The freedom, no more aching shoulder from lugging my gear around. No more security concerns about leaving the gear in the car. Mmm! No more flexibility of manual override!
A couple of years later I traded up to another P&S with more advanced features. A couple of years after that I traded up to a prosumer type camera and now, I lug around my digital SLR, two lenses, flash, etc. Now all I need (want) is another camera body to avoid changing lenses in the field. Oh! And another flash - or a studio set up - and a back cloth ...
Why? Because, this kit gives me the flexibility and results I really want.
Hey, I love this post because it is an issue I'm looking forward to having. Right now, I'm in acquisition mode and would love to acquire anyone's well maintained equipment that is stressing you out. Just setting up shop and don't want to bust the bank getting brand new stuff. If you live in the lower mainland, BC, and have stuff, let me know ;)
Great article, and very true. I had that same Ah-HA moment 20+ years ago, and promptly sold my T90 and all the garbage I'd accumulated with it. I've got most of it back now (and then some), except the Quantum batteries. Never been keen on flash.
I have since come to realize that, while I enjoy owning a large dumpster full of camera gear,and really do use most of it, I am a minimalist when it comes to the shoot: one body, one or two lenses. Never more than that.
Thanks Steve. I appreciate this article for I already understand that in most situations it is the skill and knowledge in photography that really matters, not the gears.
But I believe your article should have been entitled "Do you have too much gear for outdoor/nature photography?"
Many people reacted negatively since they have already invested a lot in gears and training and have won in contests and earned the respect of their collegues and I envy them, somehow. For some, it is already their bread and butter; so gearing up is necessary.
But I am sure a number of them are hurt because they think they are great photographers because they have plenty of gear in their arsenal. I just ignore them, always.
ok, so far, we know
Focus on the getting photos rather than the equipment to achieve your photo, so its about photos rather thatn one upmanship ( wasn't there an article about a famous photographer who got great shots on a disposable ?)
Think about why you are getting a piece of equipment and what it will achieve for you rather than my lense is bigger than yours. ask yourself if carrying it around on a regular basis is going to be ok?
as eric mesa has pointed out , think about your purchases for future use and upgrade path eg. compatible lenses.
maybe someone at DPS can write an article explaining the minimum we get away with certain scenarios. e.g travel, upgrade paths to consider when on a budget.
I for one wanted to ask someone to advise the min camera gear i can get away with for use in the caves / jungle of borneo.
i do think this article had the right idea about too much gear, but perhaps did not justify / explain well enough to everyone here.To be honest I have almost recently got carried away with the idea of all the extra lenses and gear i wanted to buy until I realise the expense, limited avalibilty in my area( middle east ), lack of future proofing. So I decided to take more time to think about what I really need and get the most out of my equipment.
I can never have too much photography equipment.
For a good photographic journey though, what I need most is a concept. When I prepare for a shoot that concept will help me decide what gear to bring along. It will keep me focused on my mission and give meaning to my endeavor.
I like to take the "casual shot" as much as the next photographer but I much prefer to be on a mission to develop a concept and create a work that satisfies my vision.
I could be documenting an event. I could take a super wide lens and look for creative ways to use it. I could grab my macro lens and spend hours in my own little world. I can experiment with different kinds of lighting...
I can never have too much photography equipment as long as I don't allow it to cloud my ability to focus on interesting concepts instead of the gear itself. (Look through the camera, but concentrate on the subject and what you want to say about it)
So I can agree with this article in this way. Don't carry a bunch of gear so you are ready for everything. Carry a concept and what gear you need to fulfil it. Yes?
I LOVE your last point, Steve. This is something I've been thinking about. People are way too quick to thrown down a lot of money on a new body, new lens, or whatever...and they would have been better served by spending a few bucks for a workshop or two, to learn how to better use the gear they already have. Hardware comes and goes, and fluctuates in value. Knowledge is scalable...and priceless.
"the less you bring, the more you get" (someone said that on the forums I can't remember their name though or I would quote them.)
I agree, somewhat. Maybe a second lens and a flash is good (even in daylight sometimes).
I agree keep gear to a minimum and concentrate on taking photos. Trouble is because I dont ask for fees for taking photos (because I dont think I'm good enough to ask for them) I keep getting given gift vouchers to camera shops. There's only so much ink & paper you can use!
I can leave the house with my crown graphic mounted with a 127mm, 6 film holders and a tripod, and be set for the day.
In most cases I have only two lenses with me and a compact camera as a backup.
Before I want to photograph something, I think about the situations which might occur and what lenses are best, if a tripod or ring flash is required and so on.
I very much prefer prime lenses - so this implies even more careful considerations. ;-)
Great reminder. I only carry around with me a few prime lenses. Small, lightweight and able to deliver the images I'm looking for. I'm a big proponent of prime lenses for those wanting to learn more. When you have to move your feet to get the shot, you often discover new angles and techniques you might have never thought of!
There's no such thing as too much gear!
I have several bodies, numerous lenses, flashes, monolights, hot lights, background supports & backgrounds, C-stands, reflectors, filters (both camera & lighting), etc., etc., yada yada yada...sheesh, enough gear to start my own second-hand store if I were so inclined.
And I still want MORE! (The new 7D looks interesting.)
That doesn't mean I NEED to carry ALL of that EVER. (With the exception of moving, which I recently did...)
But it does mean that I have choices and I can then make the most of my shoot.
For ME, travelling light means 1 body, 3 lenses 10-24 or 16-35 (depending on body), 24-70 2.8L & 70-200 2.8L, 1 580ex, and maybe a couple of filters. But it's nice to know that I have more available for those times when I really DO need it.
Then again, travelling light might just be a single long lens... It's all about what I need based on how I want to shoot or what I'm shooting. (I'll tell ya, a 16-35 is darn near useless for shooting birds... ROFL)
Oh, one last thing... If you're looking to use your credit card to buy more gear... You have enough for right now, it's not going anywhere. Just save yer pennies and it will be yours. Oh yes, it will be yours. (Nod to Wayne's World. ;) )
Robin, I hope you had it insured.
I don't agree with this article. The "problems with having too much gear" list is a bit far-fetched to me. Seriously, if keeping your warranty cards in a spot where you won't lose them is too hard, I don't think your camera gear is your issue. Also, how often do you move houses where having too much camera gear is a major issue?
I guess the only real valid points brought up were having to haul gear in and out of the house and accumulating debt.
As everyone has mentioned, the real challenge isn't owning too much gear, just knowing what to use and when... And the all too familiar feeling of seeing a good shot and knowing the lens you need to get it is sitting on your counter at home.
Well I got held up yesterday and *all* of my camera gear stolen (passport, too!), so when I read this headline in my inbox this morning I had to laugh. No, no I don't have too much camera gear :(
Is it possible to have too much gear?? I always say, the first thing I do after winning the lottery is buy one of each of everything Nikon makes, and two of many things (can't have too many D3s's).
However, from a practical standpoint, I think having too much gear comes about when gear starts to overlap.
And just a side note, have you ever heard anyone say "gear doesn't matter" that didn't own all the highest level gear him/herself?
This applies nicely to an outdoor adventure photog that really has to worry about weight when walking and hiking, for those of us that are either on-site studio-style shooters or simply dont have that much gear, it's really a non-issue.
At the moment I cover a 35mm equivalent range of 15-450, no gaps, with a fast 50 and a flash. This kit comes with me in one small bag (lowepro 180EX) and is easily stowed at home, in the car or anywhere else, really. Even with a full "Mobile studio" in a CompuTrekker Plus AW, I dont get too many funny looks on the bus, and those mainly from the lightstands/umbrella mounted to the outside of the pack.
I do like the idea of crossing things off a list, and I may do this for future travelling, but I hardly think the rest of this applies to much more than the serious adventure/nature photographer or photojournalist.
The gear is more important to some than to others. Obviously having the right tools to get the job done can be very important, but among individual photographers the range of acceptable tools varies widely. Photographer A wants specific brands and models. Photographer B is happy with whatever brand as long as it's a particular camera body design (such as SLR), and a certain range of formats and focal lengths. Photographer C is willing to consider the strengths and weaknesses of whatever gear is available, and may end up shooting sports with a Holga. There's still D through Z, and that's probably not even enough letters to describe the variations in attitude, style, subject matter, etc... among photogs. :)
My own experience is that telling gear obsessed photographers that the gear isn't important is like telling the newly heartbroken that time will heal all wounds. It doesn't change anything; you are just making annoying squawking noises at them. ;) As I was moving beyond noob into the realm of enthusiast, and starting to form a bit of a camera collection, one of my mentors told me that I was like an artist fiddling with the 124 pack of crayons, but I should be concentrating on mastering the 8 pack. I didn't listen to him, and now I've got a heap of gear that could be stacked taller than me. If I could go back in time 20 years and give myself some advice it would be "Don't waste so much time, money, and energy on the gear. Stop worrying about what lenses you own, and start studying the light." But maybe I had to spend a decade immersed in the gear to move past it?
When I'm on the job (weddings & portraits) I carry a lot of stuff. I actually rarely need most of it, but what if I did, and I have to have back ups of everything. When I'm shooting for myself I go as light as possible. I carry a single lens, and make it work whatever I run into. After hauling around big cases full of gear for work I find a small, single DSLR barely fits bag to be wonderfully freeing.
an exmaple of someone saying the same thing as my penultimate paragraph, see
paragraph 2 of http://trushots.blogspot.com/2009/09/its-ok-to-like-cameras.html
I read this article and thought "Is this for real"?? Is this person a 'Professional Photographer'?? I highly doubt it. A quick read of the another one of the aurthors 'articles' confirms.
DPS: Listen when people say Quality not Quantity - no more of this sort of dumb-ass space-filling rubbish.
My first reaction to the title of this article - "Sacrilegious! You can never have enough gear!"
After reading the article, I have to say that the hidden costs part of this article is BS. It looks like someone trying to justify why they like to have a minimal setup in photography (or life). These all seem to be problems related to mental quirks (like OCD, compulsive buying) than legitimate problems. For example, if you are buying so much gear that it clutters your workspace or puts you into debt (and you aren't trying to go pro) then you have a compulsive buying problem. You should never go into debt for a hobby - it just isn't smart. (Unless, again, you're trying to go pro)
As far as moving your gear to your car and back to the house - this is an anxiety disorder. If you know what you want to shoot, you only pack that equipment into your car. If you're anxious that you might miss this subject or that subject - tough cookies. Even if you have all your lenses with you - if you don't have multiple bodies, your subject will probably flee before you can switch lenses. I pack according to what I expect to shoot. When I went to a friend's wedding, I packed two bodies, three lenses, and a flash. So I had one camera with my mid-wide to shot-telephoto lens and one with my normal to telephoto lens. Then, at night, I switched my telephoto lens to my 50mm f/1.8 so I didn't have to use flash on that body.
As far as it breaking - if there isn't a disaster like a fire or hurricane, only the lenses you have with you should be at risk of breaking. These are the same lenses you'd have with you if you had less equipment and, therefore, the same lenses that would have broken no matter what.
Finally, and I hesitate to say this because you're a professional writing for a magazine and I am a nobody photography enthusiast, but you really shouldn't be fretting over what to put into your camera bag. If you're a professional, you should know what kind of lenses you need for a particular shoot. Then pack one off the wall lens in case you want to try something different. Again, if you don't have a particular lens at the shoot, tough cookies. If you didn't have a lot of equipment, you wouldn't have that choice anyway, would you? Sounds, again, like an anxiety problem.
In conclusion to my opening argument, this "hidden cost" thing is a load of bull. If these are your (or a reader's) personal problems, then it's something to consider. But I don't see how it's a problem. I want a lens that goes to 400mm and it's $899. Well, guess what? I've been saving up spare money for a year to buy it. See - if you do that - no debt! holy smokes!
Anyone that goes over what I've written in this blog will know that 99.9% of the time my comments are not this confrontational, but 1) I hate stupid arguments and 2) I feel like recently there's been this huge push to keep people from buying good stuff. I don't know if the pros are nervous that amateurs are getting the nice grey L lenses and they don't feel special because everyone has one now, but I've been seeing article after article telling people they don't need good equipment. There's a place for telling people that they should probably learn the basics because they move on to advanced P/Ss or dSLRs, but if you can afford to be into photography, you're probably an adult with a job. So if you're an adult, you can make adult choices. If you want to spend money to get every lens Canon (or Nikon) makes (even though you don't even know how to take photos with the kit lens), then that's your problem - not mine or anyone else's.
The advice I would give, is that you should see what you want to have eventually and save up for that. For example, if you want to eventually go to a full frame Canon camera, don't waste your money buying EF-S lenses. They won't work on a full frame camera and you'll be wasting your money. Instead, save up your money for EF lenses. And, if you want L lenses, don't buy the non-L lens in the same category and then buy the L lens, you're spending money needlessly. Just save up and buy the L lens.
It really is about the photographer, not the gear. And minimal gear can certainly lead to more actual photography getting done.
I recently got a tiny, cheap compact camera to take around with me day-to-day instead of my SLR and related gear. The first week I had it, I took it jogging with me -- which I'd never have done with my SLR. And the first picture I took with it on that jog made the front page on Flickr.
Less can definitely lead to more.
Luckily I don't have to worry about too much kit as I am just beginning my photographic voyage! All I have is a DSLR, kit lens, telephoto lens, polariser and a shutter release!
Meh. I rarely ever feel inconvenienced by all my gear. I always keep 2 stands, 2 580's, and little softboxes and umbrellas in my car as well as my little rebel and a 17-55 on it. (parked in my garaged and locked up in the trunk of course) The only things I ever bring in the house are my bigger cameras, lenses, strobes. which i keep in my crumplers & lowe pro backpack. the big light modifiers sit in my studio or garage. then again I am only 23 and I have a guy that helps me with gear setup.
Thanks all, for taking the time to respond to my article. I value your feedback, good and bad.
I'd like to emphasize a few statements I made:
Although you certainly need special gear to capture certain types of images (i.e. you can't really photograph birds without a long telephoto lens), the gear isn't the most important thing.
Although I don't think you should necessarily get rid of all your camera stuff and just use your iPhone for now on, I do think it's a good idea to minimize your gear and focus on what you really need.
I wasn't trying to say "get rid of all your stuff" but instead: "focus on what you need" and think about things before you buy them. I do think there are a lot of hidden costs when buying things, some of which I listed here.. Sure, none of them by themselves are enough of a reason not to buy something, but when you add all these things up and multiply it by all your gear, I think it adds up to a lot of extra time and resources.
"Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify." -Henry David Thoreau
Although some of the reasons he lists to support his point are quite silly and trivial to some shooters, I don't really believe that those examples are the point of this article, even though they seem to be what a lot of commenters are reacting to. I think Steve summed it up really quickly in one paragraph though:
"Although you certainly need special gear to capture certain types of images (i.e. you can't really photograph birds without a long telephoto lens), the gear isn't the most important thing. In photography (and just about everything), it isn't the gear that makes an image great, it's the photographer."
For me that's really the only point to take away from this. Even if we all know that already(we've all heard it before right?), sometimes it's good to get a reminder once in a while that most often the gear isn't what makes the shot in the long run, and if it feels like too much, remembering to simplify can be a really good thing.
Aside from my two main lenses. My Nikon 17-55 f2.8 and Nikon 70-200 f2.8VR.....It seems like I have a huge bag of "just in case" or "In THIS situation" prime lenses and flashes. But I rarely use them when Im actually WORKING. Id never get rid of them though. I guess its just the piece of mind of having them. Or maybe the fact that just having them and knowing what they can do makes me a more versatile photographer.
I know for a fact I have way too much gear. I have about 3-4 lenses that are "oh yeh that would be nice to have coz I'd like to shoot that some time" when in reality I cannot recall the last time I used those lenses........I'm already planning on sticking them on ebay so that I can at least clear my credit card.
Ugh, are you kidding with this article? I had to look twice to see if today was April Fools...
"You have to store those warranty cards?" - Hardly a hassle or space waster for a few pieces of paper to have some piece of mind around your investment. Here's a future article idea - how to use a manila folder to store your warranty cards and receipts.
"You have to move it when you move to a new house?" - Good grief. Store things in cases, put them in a box, and move them. Hardly more hassle than a couch... can't wait for the DPS article asking "Do you have too much furniture?"
"If you went into debt..." - Let me stop there. If you're a hobbyist and went into debt for gear, you've got bigger problems than too much gear. And if you're a pro, you're likely not reading articles like this on DPS and you already know exactly what gear you need (and when).
"You may eventually have the hassle of getting rid of it." - Because listing something on Craigslist or Ebay to make some cash, possibly funding upgraded equipment, is such a pain. If the hassle of "getting rid" of something were such a factor in purchasing it, nobody would own a home or car either.
Things started off well with DPS, but the push for lots of content has led to poorly edited fluff... please seek quality, not quantity (in gear and photography articles).
Same as @Trudy and @justin...
The only interesting thing I see here is if you have so much gears you don't know how or when to use it, you'll just bring everything along and spend more time on deciding which camera / lens to use than on the picture you wanna take.
If one knows in an instant which camera / lens he'll use to shoot something then no he doesn't have too much camera gears.
-- Woods
"I'm at a point now where I can't carry it all in one bag! Having so much camera stuff has become a hassle because now I have to seriously think about what to take and what not to take on a hike."
I totally agree with your thoughts...although I am not a nature photographer. When I travel, I try to minimise my camera gear. I just don't enjoy trips where I have to lug heavy equipment while on my feet for hours. I just have to learn to maximise whatever gear I have on hand to get the best photos out of them. And that was what I did on my recent trip to Perth.
Not that it's necessarily bad to enjoy your toys, but ...
You likely have too much gear if:
1. You carry a balance on at least one credit card or if you have a second mortgage.
2. You are somewhere between casual photographer with simple equipment and full-time professional photographer.
Thank you for this article, it is helpful and informative to a great extent
I look forward to seeing more of your thoughts.
I thought this was very insightful. Steve isn't saying gear is evil - in fact, he tells us he has more than he can carry when he goes out, so he clearly likes gear. But I do believe taking a step back and looking at gear as far as what we *really* need can help us improve as photographers.
Have limited lenses and knowing what they do well/don't do well, we can take the best shots for the gear we have and better come up with our own personal style, I believe.
@Trudy. Exactly what I was going to say. This is just another "meh" article I'm affraid.
Nothing is wrong with owning an arsenal, simply knowing what you need when you need it is where the real discernment lies. I shoot in a very minimalist fashion so I don't own a ton of things but many of the things you stated seem like they would only be problems for someone who had no idea what they are doing. A very organized and knowledgeable professional should not have any of those issues.
[Too much gear clutters your space, causing distractions and stress] - Why? That sounds like a poor organization problem. If someone is distracted by gear, I hate to see how they manage the distractions that can occur in a photo shoot itself. Most photographers are stressed about making ends meet in a tight economy and if simply owning nice gear or a lot of gear is a source of stress, perhaps they have no bills, family, college/grad school costs, healthcare concerns or any real stressors to attend to.
[You have to constantly move your gear from your house, to your camera bag, to your car, and finally to the photo location (and then move it all back)] - Not so. Owning a lot of gear doesn't mean all of it must be transported. Although Jarvis has a wonderful book characterizing minimalism in shooting (via iPhone) he also has a video on YouTube that catalogs the large amount of gear he takes on his shoots. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6R73OJzKxUs
[When you move to a new house, you'll have to move all that camera gear] Again, focusing on the mosquito bite instead of the cancer. Would this be a bigger concern than moving furniture, cars, getting kids registered at a new school, canceling and reopening accounts etc?
[For a lens or camera body, you have to store the warranty information somewhere, and make sure not to lose it] - If someone cannot manage to organize a simple pieces of paper, then perhaps running a photography business is not a good idea. To me, income in a recession is a bigger deal than where I store warranty information. A simple filing system and an Excel spreadsheet can cure this.
[If your gear breaks, you have to get it repaired (or replaced), which costs more money and time] - True, but most people I know (outside of nature/environmental photographers) rarely have extreme damage to their camera equipment. I do agree that more equipment means more repair costs.
[If you went into debt to buy your gear, then you have to constantly worry about that debt] - My student loan debt surpasses anything I ever bought for photography. LOL. This is a good point and I agree but I would argue that most people owe more for fancy cars that they don't need and houses bigger than needed than photography equipment.
[If you eventually decide to get rid of your gear, then you have to spend time (and possibly money) to get rid of it (e.g. eBay, craigslist, etc)] - Everything I posted on eBay sold in 24 hours and near retail value. People waste more time on social media sites than the time needed to post items for sale.
I feel like there is a certain backlash for people who like gear. Certainly anyone who calls themselves a pro understand the limitations and benefits of good gear. It's OK to like cameras. I do agree that we should push the limits with what we own (i.e. I only own 1 dSLR camera body) but it doesn't have to be a I love gear vs. I hate gear kinda thing.
I dont think there is anything wrong with having too much gear. The challenge is to know which ones to bring with you so you dont have too much gear on you.
It is easy to limit your gear when you use zooms (you could use something like 16-35, 24-70, 70-200) but once you start using primes, you quickly end up with a lot of lenses, each one with its very specific use.
On the other hand, I can relate to what you are saying. A few of my lenses are getting use once a month or less (24TS-E, I am looking at you) so I am thinking about disposing of a few of them to get one nice one (85L). Hard choice, I love each of my lenses and it is always hard to let one go!
Stevo, I'm in agreement with you. While it's good to cut back and not bring everything with you, at times I almost want to carry around an empty pack filled with bricks just to make the photobackpack seem that much lighter!
Great tips and suggestions. I'm guilty of too much gear, but am getting very muscular from hauling it around. Perhaps I'll make a list and cross things off...

Bank-robbing: fish the right place
- Posted on
Your best place to make a trout withdrawl: near bankside structure.
Many of our area rivers are priming for the salmonfly hatch—many river's largest aquatic insect and a trout's time to gorge themselves post-runoff. The salmonfly, aka Pteronarcys californica for those with overly-refined palletes or those who fancy in the ignorance of others, is a giant bug on the minds of any Montana fly fisher for the next several weeks. Their emergence, or hatch, will occur in earnest very soon. Because these insects hatch near bank-side structure, it is imperative to fish near the banks. This doesn't necessarily mean you have to change your game entirely, just a few tweaks here and there.
Start with your casting. I can cast a 100 feet. Do I need to?
As a young angler I was obsessed with casting 100 feet of fly line. My brother Carl was a born distance-caster and his fly would always land a leader's length beyond mine. So I learned to study the water closer to where I stood, and quickly found that there was always prudent water to ply within fifty 40 feet or less of where I waded. As a guide, it's always nice to have a "hucker" in the boat, someone who can really "air it out," but the folks who catch the most fish cast fifty 40 to sixty 50 feet with accuracy and manage their line diligently. Whether guiding or fishing on my own, I'll take an absolutely precise 40-foot cast over an "in-the-ballpark" hundred-foot cast any day.
Join the buffet line. Follow the food source and your find more fish.
During morning hours, trout will be congregated underneath overhanging willows and near bankside structure to catch the migration of stonefly nymphs, which make their way from mid-stream boulder to bank in order to climb ashore and hatch. Later in the day, trout will seek out eddies where the dead or crippled bugs are still swirling around, and have not yet been washed downstream. The old saying, "Fish where the fish are" should be modified: "Fish where the food is, and the fish will be there."
Go big or go home (or to your local fly shop). Increase your tippet strength and your fly size.
Trout hang out along the banks because the food is there. They also take refuge in the cover along the banks. Cover provides safety from predators and offers a break in the post-runoff currents. Although ideal for trout, rocks, trees, and other fly-snagging nastiness translate into snags and lost flies. You're going to lose a few flies. That is a given. However, fish a heavier pound test tippet and you might loose less. I rarely fish anything lighter than 2X while pre-hatch nymph fishing. I also ensure my knots are properly tied and my tippet is not old—now might be a good time to restock your tippet selection as the stuff does detoriate with age.
As for fly selection, bump up a size or two from what you think is large enough. Salmon and stonefly nymphs are large and in the fast water of the Gallatin you'll need a fly that sparks a trout's interest. Hook sizes 2, 4, and 6 are common sellers this time of year. When you snag a stick, a larger hook tied on a stout tippet stands a better chance of dislodging the stick then breaking-off. And…when catch that pig brown trout the larger hook might mean you land in the heavy currents of run-off.
The next few weeks serve up some of the season's most exhilarating fishing—rivers are in post-runoff and hatches of are large insects are the norm. Your fishing mindset doesn't need a total overhaul, just a slight tune-up.

Meet the founder
Rumie began in a rather unlikely place: at a graveyard in Amsterdam.
Let me take a step back and explain the context. I was born and raised in Canada to parents who immigrated from Kenya but are of South Asian descent. When I was very young, during a trip to visit relatives in Kenya I saw firsthand the contrast between the poverty there and my relatively privileged upbringing in North America. And after seeing my uncle, Anjam, denied an education due to a physical handicap (there were no wheelchair-accessible school buses in Nairobi in the 1960s), I became especially passionate about making access to education a basic human right for all.
But after finishing university I got sucked into following the path of so many other graduates: I put my dreams on hold and went to Wall Street instead.
"But once we graduated, we both went back to finance. It was obvious and easy to return to a cushy job, and we honestly believed we would do some good somewhere… someday. Just not yet.."
As the years passed, the itch remained: I wasn't doing what I really cared about. So I took a year off to do an MBA, and while there I met Michiel Lowenberg, a Dutch classmate who had also worked in finance but shared the same passion for using these skills to improve the world. We became close friends and later on were roommates.
But once we graduated, we both went back to finance. It was obvious and easy to return to a cushy job, and we honestly believed we would do some good somewhere… someday. Just not yet.
Then something changed: in 2010 Michiel was diagnosed with late-stage cancer. When someone close to you goes through a rough period, you often live some of it vicariously through them. And I saw that for Michiel, "someday" was no longer good enough; it was now or never. He started the charity Join for Joy, a wonderful organization that uses play to motivate children to learn – in the very same country where my parents grew up.
While battling stage 4 cancer for two and a half years, Michiel showed me clearly what I too will care about when I know my time is approaching: making a difference.
And so, standing at his grave in Amsterdam in 2013, I decided to follow his example: "someday" would no longer do for me either. I was passionate about a very big problem, I had a very big idea that could provide a game-changing solution, and it was time to stop thinking about it and just jump off the diving board and give it 110%. And so the Rumie story began.
Personally I do this because I've been lucky in life – and I know it. And if you're reading this, chances are so are you. Let's together build a revolutionary movement to level the playing field for those who are less lucky.
