Since I have started using the Blackrapid R4 two camera harness system ( I always take two bodies with two different lens mounted) I no longer have to lug a heavy backpack around on day trips( it stays in the car). I load up my vest with what I feel that I might need and throw the harness on and away I go. The new locking carabiner system has given me a new cense of comfort also. Travel light!

Carrying a full Stormcase up three flights of stairs after 34 hours of pretzel-like contortionisms in airplanes was my wake-up call.The problem is that we know we can't use what we've left behind. Therefore, the only sane solution is to have less to leave behind. However, we also know that photographers aren't entirely sane when it comes to resisting gear. So, hmm, I guess the 100 watter will do me fine. :-) It was in fact in Thailand, when I was dragging my bags up three flights of stairs at the lub-d, that I determined it was time to either lighten the load or at least keep it from increasing.

But as I've said before, my clients don't pay me to travel light. I won't be bringing it to Thailand. I'm trying desperately to "travel light" for this one. Not going so well...:-) Yes they are.

I'm to the point of wanting to add only life-saving necessities. Or maybe I'll send Silvia back to school to become a chiropractor!
