If you're shooting on the highways now, it's a bile-orange vest.
And I don't appreciate much the fact of being in a Mediterranean climateYou guys in 'continental' type climates have it easy as, relatively speaking, weather systems move slower than they do on smaller islands / at the coast.
In the UK (especially in the hills / mountains) we need to carry everything from a thin t-shirt, via warmth layers to a water and wind proof outer layer at any time of the year. We can have 4 seasons in a day, twice-over, if we're unlucky.
And I don't appreciate much the fact of being in a Mediterranean climateI'm in the coast, but went last weekend to mountainside (Pyrenees).
Summer (right now) is a killer here, a little movement and you already find yourself sweating. Midday in the mountains last weekend was horrible, hot, and staying a bit in the sun feels like being fried. Thank god that shadows were cool, but in the coast it's almost the same to be or not to be in a shadow space. Though I wouldn't like to be on a northern climate in winter.
I believe that carrying any photo vest is not a very good idea right now here.
The worst of the climate now is that I don't see anything special; Sunsets are really boring, the sky is all the day blue, and there are few clouds, that merge with the light blue of the sky. I'm awaiting fall/autumn; Sadly, in fall I'm again at h.school and don't have time to photograph much, specially that I won't go much to the mountainside, that is wonderful.
Speaking of hot climates, I recently discovered that the cycling jersey may be a really excellent garment as it breathes hundred times better than cotton shirts, can be opened in front for extra air conditioning and has the very convenient pockets in the back for your film and small accessories.
Of course one has to pick the more normal looking ones, not the race tight shirts with the eye gouging garish colors.
I have one of these too, not enough pocketsM-65 field jacket.
Warm, dry, cheap.
I have the tights, I have the cape and I think the goggles would go nicely too. What do you think I should stitch on the shirt? A nice big greek Φ (for photographer)?I think you should put together a super hero outfit.
If you don't wear that vest, and if it's a size XXL, you can send it to me as a gift, and I'll wear it.I have a photo vest (don't remember who made it) that I haven't worn in ages. It was very useful when wandering around a race track but now I mostly shoot nature and wildlife and the vest hangs in a closet. Now my "vest" is a backpack.
That hat shes wearing would make an excellent lens shade for her camera if the top was cut outActually I'd like to dress like a photographer... just not that one.
This one, please.

Been toying with getting a seamstress to make me a dress like that one... I'll make the pretty painted backdrop and buy one of those "bee" watson exposure meters which i think is what's hanging from her chest in an unladylike manner
I bought an egyptian cotton jacket 15 years ago made by Willis & Geiger (sp?) that was a great investment. It is waterproof, long sleeved that goes down to mid thigh. One of the best investments for shooting in cold weather I have ever made. It has enough pockets to carry anything I need. I believe it was made as a safari jacket. I don't think they are in business anymore though.
Unbelievable. I like Gitzo products but with this $2500 tripod......well, they must think very, very highly of themselves.Does it have a long narrow pocket for this?--
