The $2,000 Question: Why Your Next Investment Shouldn't Be Camera Gear

I’ve been doing this long enough to know the feeling. You’re out before dawn, the light does something extraordinary, and you come home with a frame that falls just short of what you saw.

After twenty years shooting landscapes full-time, I still catch myself thinking it. The gear itch is real, and the photography industry is very good at feeding it.
