Better to have a small camera with you than the best camera left at home. So for me, it's the Ricoh GXR and even just with one lens, the 50mm Macro I can get almost anything I want except humming birds. It's also not intimidating. I'd choose a camera that focusses faster, but essentially something your really take with you!

The ideas in "The Practice of Contemplative Photography" by Andy Karr and Michael Wood were helpful in discovering subjects I might have otherwise overlooked, Asher. Finding the extraordinary point of view within the ordinary scenes of every day existence is a well-known goal, but this book has some practical advice about how to go about it.

Tom,

What a great choice! This is indeed a wonderful guide, but one should also read GuyTal's qualifying advice to definitely buy the book with pointers to making the most of it!
