T.O.P. - Many Places Under the Sun
The Online Photographer (a brilliant blog, read it!), has a post well worth the read.
I find with my photography, I always want to know everything about everything. Of course there isn’t enough time in the day, so I end up knowing very little about anything. I have my digital camera, which I am very happy with; though of course I need a whole bunch of new lenses (I still go out and take photo’s with the ones I have, so don’t say it!). I really do mean to get around to fixing my old Voigtlander f7.7, of course a year on from starting some research into that, I am still no further. And of course now I have definitely decided that I am going to get myself a large format camera. I’ve been lurking on eBay and have decided I would dearly love an 8×10 Deardorff, or maybe even a 17×7 Korona; yet some realism kicks in and says a new, or nearly new, Tachihara 4×5 may be a better learning tool as my introduction to large format.
Of course my job, that thing that would pay for all this, takes up far to much time, and in the end I don’t have time to buy anything. So I take some photos when I can and just generally enjoy myself, and Mike is 100% right, it’s all good!
