Peripherals
The boring stuff is always hard to prioritize. Even for a gear head like myself, I find it difficult focus on the support pieces in my kit. It’s usually in middle of a shoot when I’m getting frustrated with a shortcoming that I’ll realize that it might have been more important than previously held.
You know the stuff. Light-stands, filters, caps, triggers, cards, etc.
One I’ve been half heartedly pursuing is a filter set. There is a psychological barrier from an early experience when I used a smudged (fluorescence?)filter on shoot. The lesson learned should be more about awareness, but I still hesitate to introduce points of failure to my system. And quality is expensive when talking filters. And since I have an ultra-wide lens I need ultra-wide filters. Like 150mm big.
Filling in the boring niches allows furthering the capabilities of our gear… Which isn’t really boring. So… 10 stop 150mm here I come.

The law of entropy
Things break down. They just do. So I wasn't shocked when this last week my workstation pc bit the dust. I could have fixed it but it would have been a waste of time. It was a powerhouse... 12 years ago... Times and resolutions have changed. It was still holding its own up until it decided to "blue screen of death". Repeatedly.
So for the first time in 6 years I have a Mac. It was not a planned upgrade but since it can handle modern media, I might get through some of my 5D backlog. I haven't stopped shooting. Just keep filling the memory cards :)
The digital darkroom is getting a refresh. We'll see how it goes.
