they're those POW Photog gloves where the tips of the fingers fold back so you have more dexterity. i like them a lot, and they double as warm glove liners. obviously they're not necessary in the summer but i always leave them in my camera bag.

Body, UWA, Fisheye, Mid-range zoom, 80-200 are always in there for skiing or hiking.

remotes, stands and strobes and battery are in a separate backpack for urban or park shooting (depending on the day)

300mm, skins, shovel, probe, lens cloth and an extra pair of goggles are in there for the BC or powder shooting in general.


When I'm not shooting skiing, it really varies upon what I need.
Sometimes I'll bring a film body or my TLR for the fun of it as well. That's always a good time!

that's why you gotta be strapped. A pocket knife in your bag isn't as accessible, or effective as a .40 subcompact on your waist.

think about how things could have turned out differently for level 1 if decker had a glock 23 in his pocket.

Can't wait for every photographer to be strapped whenever they go out and shoot haha I actually keep my butterfly knife in my camera bag. Never had to use it but you never know when you will either. I've almost forgot it was in there a few times before going into venues haha

the only problem with being strapped or carrying a gun is if your shooting urban and you get busted by the cops for being on the rail, then u have some problems with a glock on ur belt without a CCW
