Reflections
Since the pandemic struck I’ve stopped going to the office. that means I no longer have to carry a messenger-style bag large enough to hold my MacBook, charger and other work supplies in addition to my camera, spare batteries, lenses, charger, etc. All of which allows me to carry a much smaller lighter bag. At the same time, my X-T4 arrived so now, in my smaller, somewhat lighter, smaller bag I carry the X-T4, usually with the 23mm f2 lens on it, the X-T3 with the longish 55-200 on it for those very occasional long shots, as well as another street lens (18-55mm kit zoom), extra batteries and a couple of other knick-knacks. The point of this overlong gear recitation is that I occasionally take a shot or two with the X-T3 and the long lens, then stuff it back in the bottom of the bag. Last week I decided to see what was on that chip and so, over the next several posts, instead of my usual more or less contemporaneous and sequential shots I’ll be delving back into shots taken at different times and places. You may not be able to tell the difference!

Both images shot fairly close at 200mm (300mm equivalent).
Cocorico – Puking Chickens
A new arrangement of these Spanish pitchers and vase, this time shot with a telephoto at 200mm instead of up close with a macro lens.

Last week I posted a shelf of Anthony Burgess – here’s another. the second shot is more of a shameless plug for the Islers, my father’s novels, my sister’s text and a few of my own poor entries.
Bird’s Eye View
Grapes of Wrath?
Another home shot with the Fuji 60mm macro lens and, unfortunately, too-hot Litra cube.

On Photography
Steidl printed a new edition of Sander’s classic 7-volume People of the 20th Century a few years back at a quite bearable price and I was lucky enough to pick up a copy for something like $75 (Amazon currently lists 7 copies ranging in price from $325 to over $1000).
If I can’t photograph anything new, I guess I’m down to photographing books of photographs or books about photography…
