What did St. Nick bring You?

Doug, you gotta have something to transport the LF gear. So, I think the Harley qualifies as long as you use the LF pannier (uh, saddlebags) you mentioned

My mother-in-law made me a pretty sweet tripod carrying case. It looks just like a rifle case, but it does have a place for a business card, should the police get a little nervous.

A scanner and a book ; Arnold Newman's Americans . Thanks Mom.

A GPS receiver. Now I can find my way back to the car. Maybe.

For Christmas I gave myself A Day In The Darkroom. Something I haven't done since getting my digital cameras last Christmas. I found a perfectly clear 2 liter Diet Sprite bottle of Ansco 130, which had to have been mixed well over a year ago. I'm pleased to say that it works perfectly -- an amazing product! Last night I printed on Agfa RC Multicontrast paper, today I'm making final prints with my last box of 11x14 Portriga Rapid #2.

A GPS receiver also. I'm writing guides for the Smokies manways that aren't on the maps (like Whiteoak Sink, a famous wildflower walk) with GPS coordinates so others can easily navigate the unmapped manways.

Thanks!

Steve

I gave myself a kevlar/carbon fiber kayak. 17 feet and only 44lbs. Apostle Islands, here I come with LF!

I gave myself an 11x14 Burke & James view camera. Actually, it arrived the Saturday before Christmas, so I'm considering it a Christmas gift even though I've been trying to get one for over a year. By Monday I had an 8 1/2" square Packard shutter in the camera and adapted one of the lensboards to hold a large lens mounting iris and a 24" RD Artar. Today I picked up some wood to make some new 9" lensboards so that I can finally mount that 18" f/4 Verito I've had in storage the past 3 years. I hope to be shooting with it in a couple days.

I didn't find the Canham 5x7 I've been wanting under the tree, but my wife did renew View Camera Magazine for me for another year.

The Henri Cartier Bresson book "The Man, The Image, and The World."
