Olympus Tough TG-2, I shot this out of hand, with no added gear of any sort.Inspiration
We have cats, cats have kittens... and we have cameras... What was the question? :)))Editing
Some photos will mandatorily be snapshots, as the situation with cats usually changes at cat speed. Then I have to re-frame and crop the photos to an acceptable layout. Although there was nothing requiring speedy reactions here, that was pretty much all that had to be done about this one too.In my camera bag
To me it is easier to carry a photo vest than any photo bag. So I load my photo vest with whatever I might need for my photo session, walk or trip. My photo bags usually keep the equipment I'm not using at the moment. The vest's many pockets usually contain two cameras, spare batteries, ND and CPL filters, and one small photo clamp instead of a tripod. Sometimes I'll include a small action camera, mainly for its wide field of view and resistance to water and weather. The vest has large-lens pockets that holds a small water bottle, a sandwich, or a bar of chocolate if I plan on being out for the whole day. There is about three meters length of paracord or similar strong, thin rope, one hefty pocket knife, and a lighter. With these, much can be "mcgyvered" along the way, so that's all I need. Recently I make it even more comfortable for me, and take the essentials along in a waist pouch. Simplicity and comfort; two best ingredients in most situations!Feedback
You gotta have cats, no question about that! And then the cats will have kittens. That's when you will always have a camera near to hand, and I'll bet whatever you like that you'll make more photos than ever before! Inevitably, some of those will be worthy of showing to the Viewbugs - so in turn, some of these shown will win an Award. Or three. That's all there is to it! :)
