p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · What are your 2014 photography goals?


Every year I set out a new goal for myself. One year it was to learn Layers, another it was to learn to use T&S glass, another was to purchase MF glass.

This year, my photographic goals are to get back up on two wheels and maybe add a mirror-less system to tote on the scoot. What's on your mind for the year ahead?

I'm still trying to compile my photos. I guess that's new portfolio.

I need to update my computer, for the Windows update to 7 or 8.1 I want to make the step to a 64bit system. Which results in some new software. But this is most likely not much fun, but much work.
I hope the new system will work much faster - and I will like the new Photoshop and Lightroom, and all the NIK filters :-)

I think I have enough lenses and enough cameras.
I need to use the gear I have!
Some cheap lenses I will likely buy, but those are things I do not plan, but find it on fleemarkets or Ebay.
It would be good to make a big update of my website, but this will probably not happen. Donīt like such work, and there is no real need for it.

One bigger photographic change seems to be likely: Working with film again.
I have some ideas I should test with 6x6 or 6x9cm film. Probably even bigger.
For this I need to find a good cheap way to get the negatives / slides to digital files, most likely with a DSLR and macro or enlarger lens for the first tests.
A simple test need to be done with 135 film, there I even have a scanner.

What a terrible list!

To take better photos, of course.

+2 for terrible list, all equipment, nothing in the mind.

I have enough equipment to take good photos. In fact, I have too much, I just need to make some tough decisions about what to sell. It gets in the way. What I need to do is:

1) Get back in the game, too few photos in 2013.

2) Choose a solid project, and work at it every week.

2013 was great. I wish 2014 will be as nice for my photography (but I doubt it).
I also want to stick with my gear choices again, like it was when I was only shooting Canon + Zeiss. I owned (too?) many cameras this year and ditched the DSLR.
Most importantly I hope my health will improve next year.
We'll see.

My goal is to get out of the city more, and shoot more proper landscape work.

Frankly, in terms of equipment my number one interest is a good locking differential for my truck, so I can get into really out of the way places.

I'd like to stop spending money (or at least MOSTLY stop), and just take more photos.

I am in Korea for the next 11 months, and I want to shoot the hell out of it.

I'm in the take better pictures camp. I don't want any new gear this year. I just want to get better at photography. I plan to take a photography course and that may involve new techniques, but mostly developing my artistic eye.

stay in business with all the free photographers out there. Gear related, it would be nice to add a tilt/shift lens or new body if Canon comes out with something that would improve my product.

I just want something like ...35mm digital back, to free up all the optical heritage of nearly 200 years.
1- Mirroless type to make liveview.
2- Cheap enough to blow the world.
3- 3 layer sensor, Foveon or Sony or Canon whatever.
The body is a ...DIY piece of plastic/wood/cardboard.
Happy New Year to all.

That is my primary goal, to take more pictures, and secondly to improve the quality of each shot I take.
