We're back Bangkok (oh, how I've missed good Pad Thai!), and we'll be recharging our batteries for the 11 weeks prior to when the next assignment in Cambodia.<br /> <br /> We took the slow route home, using the train from UB up to Beijing, after which you can on by train to visit a us photojournalist friend of ours in Hong Kong before catching a direct flight ticket to Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi. Have you ever been in Asia chances are you'll help you tiny, crowded camera stores around Tsim Sha Tsui are practically Mecca for photographers. A call is somewhat of a treat in my position, and that i always come away with much, significantly more than I'll ever use.<br /> <br /> This is certainly becoming something of your problem in my situation presently. I'm achieving in years, and while I'm practically never past their prime it's growing to be a little harder day by day to lug around the extremely heavy kit bags I should use to get the responsibility done. My buddies let me know I carry an excess of like it is (Completely new six [http://www.amazon.com/STKs-Canon-BP-511-Battery-Powershot/dp/B000BNY64C Canon BP-511] batteries at my pockets without exception, an example) but the ideal leaving half my kit in the home really is not a solution.<br /> <br /> You find, any photographer recognises that everything doesn't stick to your rules. You can't simply consider the sky and know for many that this weather will have nice until you're done shooting, and due to that you must take into account all eventualities. Whether or not it gets to be a little cloudy, I'll need this filter. If for example the shoot runs long, I'll need this fast lens to handle low light. This flash. That tripod. While you are a day's drive within the nearest town you will not manage to take risks, also, you need everything at your fingertips.<br /> <br /> It's all receiving a little a lot, though. 11 weeks of trekking through Mongolia almost killed me, and quite often that 15kg of apparatus felt similar to a noose around my neck. I cant do just that again.<br /> <br /> Thus i won't. It's the perfect time for any huge alteration in the way that Frequently. I need to affirm that Determine have all the feaures with me at night all the time. I've got to pare down my gear, and find out how to help what I have. Those batteries I pointed out earlier, as an example. I carry six Canon BP-511 spares for my Canon 10D. I it without thinking, though the combined weight of such batteries is half a kilo. That's insane.<br /> <br /> Down the road, I'm never shooting exceeding 10kg into my kit. A single body, three lenses while some absolute essentials. No much more than three Canon BP-511 batteries can expect to live in my pocket. The Leica will stay in the house - I never shoot 35mm whatever the case. Going back few days Searching for experimenting with this, and hazards there has to be on a pared down kit to earn us a better photographer. I am hoping whenever they me think more carefully concerning shot, resisting the urge to make usage of every weapon around my arsenal over thousands of shots, hoping for the perfect moment.<br /> <br /> One man. One camera. One lens. The way photography has to be.</div>
