I would give up photography. I am not as interested in the photo I just made, as in the next photo, which I hope will be better.
 
My big behind taking a huge dump on big business, mortgage companies, and big government.
 
The sort of picture that makes people remark, "Isn't it amazing how that one picture keeps making millions each year for Colin, despite it being made decades ago?"
 
I would want to photograph something that causes people to look for God. Something that screams "this isn't just a result of a big bang, but of My Hand carving and shaping this to what you see before you"

that is what I would shoot.

My family, no doubt. I wouldn't care which camera.
 
I would take one more photo of my boys in the landscape to finish that series (8x10, platinum, possibly carbon). The only question would be which landscape -- probably somewhere in Australia as my boys are half Aussie and all the rest of the series has been taken here in the States.

Then I would start going through 35 years worth of negatives to find all the good ones I have never gotten around to print because the latest negs grabbed all my attention.

PS...I am about ready to head to the darkroom to develop the latest of the boys-in-the-landscape series (the 3 brothers along the Merced River with the Three Brothers in the background.)

If you could only take ONE more photograph, what would it be of, and what medium(s) would you use to take it. Mine would probably be an 8X10 Ektachrome of my parents printed on Ilfochrome.....

Of: The face of God
Medium: Extremely Huge Format (not invented yet, but give it time)

What he said, except put Richard in the name place...

Seriously, probably my wife, with the RB67, on Polaroid 667.
 
Of course. I have really only seen her once in a televised interview, and she struck me as the personification (struggling for words) of grace and beauty. Every action, every nuance...

I doubt that I have the skills to capture even a minute fraction of all that ...
but it would be the ultimate challenge ... ultimate adventure... to even TRY.

As far as I am concerned, she is, second only to me wife, the most beautiful woman in the world.

She is also beautiful inside.

Monica Bellucci, with my EOS 1v and 85mm L m2 lens (I dont have the 85mm yet) :D
 
Being realist:
-A Boeing 747 few seconds after taking off. 35mm and in Kodachrome, of course. Other viable option would be 645 with some nice B&W film.
-Family
-The messy room in grandparents' house that contains all the family memorabilia (I did one of those with me there)
-The valley where my home village is located.

Being unrealistic:
-A closeup of Earth from the moon with nice KR64 in 4x5.
-Myself posing in the moon pointing at Earth.
-Whatever thing makes the world end.
 
Ah! Oh! A "post hoc" confusion.
I wasn't replying to your post, but answering the original question: If i could only take ONE more photograph, i wouldn't.

Heh... I thought maybe you expected me to have a very slim chance. :D
