Essential non-photographic equipment

[John Koehrer]

The annoying signs you find at the side of the road provide a lightweight wire frame that hold a small reflector made of corrugated plastic.
You're also cleaning up the roadside of those crappy looking signs.

gafers tape

Calumet in cambride,Ma has it so their on line service web should have it too:

Gaffer's tape and then a little more gaffer's tape....speaking of which, anyone know if Freestyle or B&H carries it? My stash depletith.

Earplugs are absolutely essential. When I'm going to a noisy event, then I pack in a pair of etymotic research er-20 'plugs. I can photograph and come out with intact eardrums afterwards.

Black gaffers tape is something that I can't get enough of in the darkroom.

Non photographic essentials? Why, donuts, of course.

iPod and coffeemaker.

iPod with ruby lith over the screen for the darkroom.

A plastic lingerie dryer...looks like a mobile only it has laundry pins hanging off of it...great for film drying.

Swiss army knife...can't tell you how many time's I've used it to rescrew the my Bogen 3047 to the tripod legs.

Oh yeah, lots and lots of Ziploc bags...don't leave home without 'em!
